NDIS participants can no longer access sex worker services through funding. Advocates say it's a 'deep betrayal'

Jump

  • More of my tax is going to the NDIS than to Medicare.

    I would rather funds be spent on Medicare than hookers but you do you.

  • Well that’s a lot of false equivalence going on, good luck with that.

  • And I have a need for some rest and relaxation from the daily grind. I would rather spend my money on myself than on hookers for someone else.

    Weird I know.

  • No I'm against it because I don't believe in paying for sex, that sex workers are predatory and undeserving of public funds.

    I was pointing out the political reality of the situation because regardless of my personal opinion the outcome will be decided by the electorate.

    Again, welcome to reality, sometimes life sucks and then you die.

  • Every government that has tried to tax billionaires more has been voted out.

    No government is going to win an election when smear campaigns can truthfully say the government is paying for hookers.

    Welcome to reality.

  • When you break it down by region it makes a bit more sense but plenty of people are still doing it tough.

  • Everyone else who pays taxes towards a program like the NDIS is giving up a little of their own quality of life.

    Hookers shouldn’t be getting NDIS funds paid to them when there are still people going without and this is part of balancing the budget to ensure the NDIS is sustainable.

  • I have warned about this. Access to online services will soon be locked behind your mygov id.

    These plans have been in motion for a long time.

  • I see no evidence backed by actual science that allowing NDIS funded access to sex services improves outcomes for the community.

    And I don’t just mean the disabled community but broader society, which is paying for the NDIS.

    If this is about funding making a subset of people feel good and not about actual outcomes then I might as well ask for taxpayers to fund my holidays.

    • Who was our best Prime Minister and why?

    Jump

  • Menzies oversaw the nation building that occurred after WW2 and everything that has come since has been heavily influenced by his work.

    Though I do rate Whitlam and Hawke highly as well so Im pretty happy with responses in this thread!

  • So he was, according to one claim, disrespectful to the people who were disrespecting fans and his wishes to make a faithful adaptation.

    I see no problems here.

    Oh and saying it’s a ‘problem’ that he didn’t want to perform sex scenes for misandrist show runner and writers isn’t a negative. He stood up for himself.

    Understandably not everyone is in that position but I hope we can boost home ownership rates or we’re in for a very bad time.

  • Is Linux perfect? Absolutely not and I have never made that claim.

    My point was merely that Windows users are bombarded with popups from the start and Microsoft are only going to get more aggressive with their monetisation practices.

    Im annoyed about stuff all the time on Linux but rarely do I feel the seething rage I get when Windows tries to push ads on me. On an OS I fucking paid for.
