RE: 10years of Closing the Gap - When is equal actually equal?
Have you seen that political cartoon with four people and four boxes. https://goo.gl/images/OH07dP
If money can’t fix this issue, how do you think they should go about it?
Yes i like that cartoon.
Basically it needs a carrot and stick approach. Currently everyone is getting a carrot and have got fat and lazy. Theres no incentive OR disincentive to work or improve you're own situation.
I'm very much a capitalist, I believe in a fair days pay for a fair days work. Socialism make people lazy and greedy. Obviously that problem extends WAY past Aboriginals its an entire society problem in Australia. Why get a job when we can just live off the dole.
I'm not Anti-welfare, i think welfare or social security is vital, but it should only ever be a security net, not a life style.
I can see your way of thinking. I think we need a system that is consistently changing to keep people from figuring out how to beat the system.
