Yes and it should never have been illegal.
It should be marketed, regulated and taxed like alcohol and tobacco.
As things stand it’s tax free income for criminals.
The government is missing out on billions of tax dollars.

No.

We collect the ten cents for all our bottles and cans etc but have no idea what happens to them after that. I hope they are recycled and not put into landfill.

It’s because some people think their dogs are human and in fact treat them better than they treat other people.
I didn’t know you could take dogs into Bunnings and am surprised they allow it. I have never seen a dog inside our local Bunnings.

Are you sure there is a major hold up? I remember there was a year ago because the previous government had not set aside money to pay for what it had announced.

I have seen reports recently of quite a lot of activity around flood victims who are being offered assistance with either flood proofing their homes and business’ or relocating.

Neither is going to happen overnight though.

Yes. Marihuana use should always have been regulated and taxed like alcohol use.
Banning popular products just makes good people into criminals and gangsters rich.

GP’s need to be given greater credit for their skills and training rather than being seen as “Oh you’re only a GP”. Many organisations such as insurance companies and Centrelink will not accept medical evidence from a GP. They insist on having specialists reports when assessing claims which is a load of bulldust intended to slow things down and make it as difficult as possible for claimants. It often means regional residents have to travel very long distances to have a specialist diagnose the same thing as what their GP already has. And that is only after they wait months for an appointment. The system is rigged, specialists are usually the financial beneficiaries being paid double what the GP is for the same result.

I generally avoid the self checkouts.

I think there has traditionally been a public holiday for the death/funeral of a monarch although it’s been such a long time the tradition may have been forgotten.
For me it makes little difference one way or the other.
It might have been better to hold it on the Friday though as making it a Thursday will mean a lot of workers will take a four day break. Good for holiday destinations I suppose.

[David Ryder]

No they should not be banned. But they should have to be turned off while in class.

No good news for most pensioners. Pension payments continue to fall behind the rising cost of living.
Changes to the work rules will only benefit a few.

Hard to say what I would do in such a hypothetical situation. But the lady in question was clever enough to gift much of it away probably to relatives overseas from whom it will never be returned.
Plus she will probably never be in a position to repay so much money so the company will have to write it off whatever the court says.

As this stuff is no longer being sold I doubt there would still be much of it around in November.

I guess these are overall experiences, because occasionally you can find the best deal at any of the stores covered. In other words it pays to shop around.
