    Rent assistance is going up by 10% which is a lot, don’t bother checking the actual number though.

    Yes this bit did make me laugh. Rent assistance only makes up a minority of an individual’s payment, so an increase of 10% is like less than $10 a fortnight or something lol

    Yeah Chaser nailed it. All the “assistance” is not for the people who need it… It’s simply welfare for the power companies and landlords. The ones who caused this shit show in the first place.
