It is now 1.18 am on Thursday, June 18, in Darwin. I have been learning about Australian inequalities and disparities in tax deduction entitlements for non-income-earning Australian retirees. The Australian Government is so blaise in its regard for and treatment of those who have retired from the workforce. I will share some of the findings tomorrow or the next day.

In essence, the government says to people like me: “Thank you, now piss off, granddad.”
