Or whether the postponement of Rd 3 has opened the door for more riders to head West?
Frothing going to watch, but am contracted to a job in Kalgoorlie
It should have been used as an emergency stopgap 6 months at most until actual proper quarantine centers setup...yet here we are still using hotels in the CBDs.
But international quarantine is a federal responsibly...this is all on that muppet Scomo.
Every single fucking outbreak from hotel quarantine and lockdown after lockdown costing billions why hasn't this guy been dragged out of office.
ugh politics...click me !!!!
Plus if your sneaky and get a good accountant over here you can claim most of it back at tax time.
I'm in a few Facebook groups centered around Americans and their stories of how fucked up the healthcare system or lack of is. It's truly sad.

Cant wait,im racing it for the first time.
Don't forget, we don't pay state and federal taxes separately either. just federal tax
We pay on average about 3k a year more than the average American.

And yes, the US has a population of 10x, so that makes it more complicated, but with the population also comes with 10x the tax base and therefore resource.
Finally, the extra tax we do pay is not just because of healthcare. there are many other government programs which benefit
I have lived in 2 countries with higher tax rates than Aus, and one with a lower tax rate. I found there are pros and cons to the different approaches.
I am certainly not saying our system is perfect, but your buddy is either mistaken, or he should call the cops because his accountant is robbing him blind haha
But I would agree, if the average tax payer in Australia got healthcare included for only an additional $3K compared to the average American that is a really good deal.
But you guys have other taxes too, just like we do, sales tax is high in OZ, like 10% right? That is what I remembered. You guys also pay property tax like most Americans do don't you? And I think you have medicare tax as well, just like us over here, no?
Anyway, I am not here to bag on Australia, I have been there several times and I think it is a great place. I only know a little bit about your tax system because of the kind of work I am in and through my friend there. You locals certainly would know more than me.
This page could give you a good sense of how large the difference could be between the two countries for someone at my friends income level (deductions and other tax rules complicate the comparisons for sure) - https://sendmoneyaustralia.com/tax-rates-in-australia-comparison-to-usa…
or: https://au.talent.com/tax-calculator?salary=325000&from=year®ion=Australia
At more "average" income levels the difference in tax rates would not nearly be as large I am sure, more to your point. Anyway, on to moto this weekend, hopefully your boys get back at it soon!
I guess the point i was making was the federal vs state tax thing, as we don't pay state tax directly.
Cheers.
