There was recently a hot topic here debating on welfare management (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/192729)
And this came out today -

I'm gutted. So I am that hardworking guy who works his arse off and get the same amount of disposable income as the blob next door who does nothing but reproduce and smoke weed.
Nice.
I have only just lost my job due to the company promptly being pushed into administration. Job market is tough and whilst I've been applying constantly I haven't had much luck and so have now made arrangements with Centrelink to hopefully get some money to get me by. Not being paid out entitlements when you are living pay-check to pay-check has meant I've got no other choice and I'm grateful that there is welfare in place to support me whilst I look for work. (unless the decline me because I have outstanding entitlements which haven't been paid, then grrr…)
Also if anyone is looking to hire….hello :)
