2moThis is nothing new in the rest of the world, But here in Australia business want tadpoles so they pay little to no wage. I am on DES and have damaged health because of the government forcing the vax to be able to work and now no one will hire me because of all the problems because of the government incompetence... The government of Australia should be paying compensation for life to everyone who has been injured like me or funding any small business we try to start so we can live. And the older we are the worse it is for us I am 43 and struggling every day
