The system is the system
The NDIS is just another victim in a long line of victims of neoliberalism – another idea exported from the USA where profit is the only thing.
Yes there has been some exploiting the system some rorting but the main beneficiaries have not been the patients and poor as with all these systems the most disadvantaged and less well off are getting peanuts and beer while those at the top are on champagne and caviar those who need a walking frame are waiting approvable for a very profitable top of the range wheel chair.
Its not just the NDIS .
The medical system when did you last go to your GP without coming away with a referal and a prescription and there is no ramping at private hospitals .
Yes our Local Private school has fees and it also has enough tennis courts to hold the Australian open ,test quality cricket pitches and the pick of the teachers while public school teachers are retiring or on TRT
Every start up mining project, railway, large business & power project most owned by multinationals with a hand in the taxpayers pocket along with Defence obsolete before delivery never used in anger.
