Help, I'm sinking

Help, I'm sinking



"Once again we see that while the rich get richer the poor get poorer, and every policy direction this government is taking is designed to increase that gap, despite income inequity having been identified as one of the greatest economic crises facing the world today.
This suggests that some refocusing of the debate is required away from those at the very top of the income distribution towards those at the very bottom.  The Australian Social Inclusion Board estimates (using a variety of indicators) that 5 per cent (around 640,000 people) of Australians aged between 18 and 64 have multiple disadvantages. A greater focus on understanding and tackling multiple and entrenched disadvantage is critical in terms of improving overall wellbeing in Australia
It appears to me that that the rising tide of bullshit is designed to trickle down by pissing on the poor."
