I can understand why some people are on unemployment benefits.
They just cannot answer a simple question

How much were the unemployment benefits in June 2009?

$453.00 per fortnight.

How much are unemployment benefits now?

READ THE OPENING POST!!!!!

I'm not a research assistant!

The OP refers to Newstart Allowance, is that Unemployment benefits?

Not being unemployed I wouldn't know what the official term is.

Being a Lib voter, you'd be more familiar with the derogatory term 'Dole' - as incorporated into the Howard Govt's despicably-named 'Work for the Dole' demonisation, vilification and enslavement policy...

Is Newstart Allowance the same as Unemployment Benefits?

Perhaps you should re-phrase your rhetorical question as follows: - Is Newstart Allowance the same as Unemployment Benefits and/or the same as the Dole!?
Back to top	Lamenting the shift in the Australian psyche, away from the egalitarian ideal of the fair-go - and the rise of short-sighted pollies, who worship the 'Growth Fairy' and seek to divide and conquer! IP Logged

That may confuse them, as they have enough difficulty of answering a simple yes or no with the question already
