I am posting some articles I have written to review the reasons why today we have rental problems.
Let us start from the beginning.
Welcome to our article Australian pensioners alarmed.
Yes, today the Australian pensioners are alarmed, because their pensions can be cut, and some of them may even lose the government pension.
But let us start from the beginning and talk about the man that brought in this disaster, that the Australian pensioners didn’t deserve. Anyhow, this disastrous budget was delivered from the then treasurer Joe Hockey, the 13th of May 2014, today we are still finding how terrible this budget was. Because the 1st of January 2017, some Australian pensioners have lost some pension payments. But first let us see how the experts have described this budget at that time. So, here I quote:
The grim budget faced widespread criticism and was overwhelmingly rejected by the Australian public as reflected in all opinion polls after its release. Opposition to "unfair" budget measures came from the opposition and crossbench, pensioners, economists, the union movement, students, welfare community and disability groups are protesting. The budget included changes which were contrary to pre-election commitments and promises made by the Liberals in opposition. Critics argue that every one of the following pre-election commitments made by Tony Abbott were broken in the first budget: "No cuts to education, no cuts to health, no change to pensions, no change to the GST and no cuts to the ABC or SBS." Echos of the "dead and buried" Fightback! policy package from the 1993 election occurred with proposals to defer unemployment benefits for six months for under 30s and the removal of GP bulk billing. Most proposals have since been shelved, dumped or modified.
End of quote.
THESE ARE SOME OF THE REASONS WHY WE HAVE RENTAL PROBLEMS TODAY.
