    The people losing their jobs in Aust Higher Ed are being called ‘non-essential’. Try getting anything done without these absolutely essential folks at a University: “research assistants, student support service staff, library workers and IT staff”.

    Was thinking about my family and friends in NY/NJ and got drawn to this song. I know it's still frightening but the tide is hopefully starting to turn due to all your efforts. So sending this to you with love. JA

    A tax levy? Why not just forego the tax cuts that have yet to come in place which will mostly cover the entire cost in 10 years. (ie about the same length of time as from the GFC till now)

    These are big decisions that transcend normal politics. We're talking about national survival here. What recessions do to countries, if they're deep and prolonged, is simply hideous.

    Our teachers have done an incredible job to be ready for the first day of remote and flexible learning today. I know it hasn't always been easy. Big changes rarely are. But on behalf of the whole state – thank you. For everything.

    The article is horse shit. The virus has exposed every flaw in the global economy. Flawed tax systems. Flawed health systems. Flawed politicians and flawed businesses....Zero distribution of wealth. Nowhere has any organisation or govt put anything aside for ‘a rainy day’.
