 Most of the Aussie cartoons are about the HomeBuilder program: after promising a "tradie-led recovery" from the recession, Scott Morrison announced a $25,000 grant to eligible* home owner-occupier builds and renovations starting in the next six months. Many are focusing on part of the asterisk that renovations have to be at least $150k to $750k. Also notably not a large public construction project for our need for social housing. * very long list of limits on how much people earn, how much house is worth, what renos are allowed, etc. Broelman:  "Franking credits" are a refund on share dividends which was introduced first by Keating (as treasurer) because shareholders were being taxed twice at both corporate tax and income tax level. But they were then extended by the Howard government to be paid out to shareholders who weren't actually paying any tax, so instead of reducing taxed twice to taxed once, they move from no tax to getting a cheque from the government for owning shares. It was a key issue in the last Australian election and probably a large part why Labor lost. See What are franking credits and why are some boomers so angry? (SBS May 2019). Knight:  There are rallies planning in Australian cities for the weekend while we are still in a high level of restrictions and the state premiers are in a difficult position. In Victoria Premier Dan Andrews is saying that he won't arrest or fine protesters for breaching lockdown but he's strongly advising not to come to the centre of Melbourne and crowd together while we still haven't fully got the virus under control. Leak, Son of Leak:  Building the Education Revolution was part of the Rudd government's stimulus package for the Global Financial Crisis back in 2010. It was criticised at the time for schools constructing building they didn't need because the money was only there for certain projects. The "Pink Batts Scandal" is also Rudd era: Energy Efficient Home Package. i.e. Labor Construction Projects Also Bad when Liberals come out with construction project shocker.

Rall: This Virtual Campaign Is Even Less Exciting Than the Usual Virtual Campaign Ted Rall posted:Can Joe Biden win a presidential campaign from his basement on a small screen without anyone watching? We’re about to find out. Of course, it’s not like most people ever get to interact with the candidates anyway. It’s just that television seems more “real” than the Internet.

So have a go - do a reno  I was disappointed the previous Aussie cartoons missed the best bit of Scott Morrison's HomeBuilder announcement: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thJRRcHGbQQ

Samurai Sanders posted:Huh. I thought I heard that Aboriginal Australians had way worse general health than white Australians, so I figured that would turn into them dying at a higher rate per capita. It didn't? Yes they indeed have worse general health. However the lockdowns and ban on travel made sure it just never got into those communities in the first place and as far as I am aware,testing was availible early for them - most of the deaths and a high percentage of cases overall were related to nursing homes and cruise ships As much as I would the leery about big gatherings, the fact is that Australia has gently caress all community transmission now and the 4-8 cases a day being found are all overseas arrivals in quarantine. Knight's hand wringing about Covid-19 hitting a BLM march is resonably baseless esp when the organisers are requesting marchers wear masks and social distance. Mark Knight works for a Murdoch publication so that might also give you some idea why he might not like BLM marches. Oh and he did this one  Serena's opponent was Asian, not white as well.

...Zoom meetings are on video camera specifically so that you can see the people you're talking to and their facial expressions/body language, it's why Zoom is a thing over conference calls ...and there's no point in Zoom to avoid COVID contagion if you're going to argue about it within six feet of each other without wearing masks Jesus, this isn't even willfully dense, this is just Rob Smith levels of not even understanding anything you're arguing for or against

Pants Donkey posted:I have terrible news for you It's been a while since I saw a Liccar so I kind of forgot how incredibly inept he is. I mean why is that womans hands white in the first two panels? Are they gloves? No they can't be glove since they are coloured in the last panel! But why are they not the same colour as her face? Even a lazy artist would just choose one colour and run with it, why not Liccar? It truly boggles the mind.
