Next time I need to dump some rubbish I'll just put all my assets into an offshore company and go bankrupt, save $660 a year.

If you’re seeing a lot of posts saying that Russia isn’t America’s enemy, that Putin wants peace, and that Zelensky’s a dictator who’s causing the high gas/diesel prices in the US, congrats; Elon’s algorithm has you pegged as a monumentally stupid and gullible fucking moron.

They’ve all peaked in their first year. Perkins and Hobbs included. Which suggests that the talent was there and the club / Brad Scott’s world class elite sporting program absolutely butchered them.

David Pocock inconveniently pointing out that Microsoft pays the princely sum of 1.39% corporate tax on their Australian revenue. Liz Fitch of Microsoft responds with talk about "ecosystems". Righto Liz, all good then. I love Pocock. #auspol #ai

Nope! I always say there is no such thing as self-made. It’s a myth. It took millions of people - from my parents to mentors to friends to competitors to fans and voters - to write my success story. I did not write it alone. That’s the American Dream - not a lie about going it alone - but the truth that none of us do, and there is always someone with their hand out to lift us up.
this guy did everything for himself!

The number of people we had telling us that negative gearing and the CGT discount on existing property had a minimal effect on investor demand and by extension prices Who are now saying their removal is tanking the housing market is astounding.

I love "The hierarchy of disagreement". We collectively need to learn how to argue and disagree in a kinder, more efficient way. The whole article is worth reading. If you are pressed for time just read the pyramid and laugh at the lowest stage. Source: buff.ly/2tU4hgx

It's 'loyalty tax' time. Wholesale electricity prices have dropped (DMO) but providers are stuffing customers w 15% bill hikes. Feedback welcome for a story. Providers have to give best offer by law

My question would be "you have argued that workers are lazy and business should have more power to sack them. Can you give us a reason you only attended 52% of your required parliament sitting hours? Should it be easier to sack senators?"
