Mildly infuriating because of the volume bar in the screenshot. You could have taken screenshot from the recents.

Looks like a lot! Hope it’s being split 2x ways.

Half for me, and the other half for me.

Really? That's a pretty typical Japanese breakfast in terms of size. Fish, salad/pickles, rice, soup, and natto is pretty standard. My wife is tiny and would totally eat that every morning if we made it. She's usually too busy to make the fish, but eats natto, rice, pickles/salad, and sometimes soup (more in the cooler months) every morning before work.

MajesticNubbin , to mildlyinteresting in in Australia, when we pay taxes, we get a receipt. The receipt shows what our taxes were spent on

One thing to note about this breakdown is that it wasn’t legislated with good intention but it was implemented in a very malicious compliance way that completely counteracted the original intention.

This receipt was legislated by the conservative party in Australia under Tony Abbott, the surface level intention was to “show where people’s tax dollars are spent”. However the underlying intention was to show welfare spending as a huge category that totally eclipsed all other spending in order to demonize welfare, particularly unemployment welfare. In order to build public support for rolling back that spending.

However when the letter was implemented, the welfare category was further broken down as you see here, completely working against the narrative that the government at the time was trying to spin (that unemployment welfare particularly was a huge drain on society).

Nice

Clipper152 ,

Makes sense. I was already worried as soon as I saw “welfare” being bigger than “health”.

nxfsi ,

Instead it shows that boomers are the real drain on society

Well, are they lying? It’s just true that welfare costs a lot of money (the “aged” category takes like half of my country’s taxes)

Ilandar ,

Yes, they were lying. We are not talking about the aged pension here.

Still, in the long term it just improved the government’s transparency

Did you make their day? Because they were pretty clear that we needed to make their day.

    She is smart. Luckily the only asshole thing she uses her brain for is opening cabinets and closets.

    I have child safety locks on my kitchen cabinets. I swear if she had hands she’d get past them.

    Kinda wish we got this in the US. Then people will realize all the junk our taxes support and will also (likely) want to cut spending.

    Only in a perfect world

    Am American. If I saw a tax breakdown like this, with most of my dollars helping people instead of killing them, I would want to increase spending

    People make fun of Enya’s music but it’s really well produced and exactly what she likes to make. What a great life, making art you love, really well, never touring, and living with your cats in a castle

    Those rental scooters in my city are always parked so they obstruct as much of the sidewalk as possible, it’s so infuriating.

    brunofin ,

    I don’t get why people do this and I get the hate for the rental escooters and ebikes (even though I think most people kick them just for “fun”). I usually take my time and put them out of the way. People look weird at me sometimes but I feel like doing something good. It’s like that’s why we can’t have nice things. They’ve banned those in São Paulo, Brazil because of that, didn’t take I think 2 months even.
