The Australian government has decided to "crack down" on welfare payments.
Fair enough, I suppose. But not really.
I have been redundant for six months - spent my redundancy - and d'ya think I can get a Disability Pension?
Twenty years, I was still working despite it all.
I now have a scooter and had to spend a lot of money to remodel the bathroom, so I won't fall a over head.
Not a word from Centrelink, (our social security). Two hour "your call is important to us" phone calls.
The last time, I told the woman I was running out of money. She said, "If you get down to $600, in total, in all your accounts, we can look at giving you an emergency payment."
Seriously?
I have MS, I can't walk - here are all my medical records - you actually think I'm faking it?!?
