Hi again. Just wanted to say I have no issues at all with the apprenticeship loan or the hecs loans for students I think they are both a great idea I have a son who is an apprentice carpenter who can access it if he wants but hasn’t had too. That’s not the point I was making. I’m just saying there could be a similar loan put in place for people in our situation. That’s all. And if you don’t have a job or have never had one hence no super or sick pay then there’s no issues with getting support I know it’s tough for those solely on those payments as it’s not much for some others like single mums with a tonne of kids earn more than I do on Centrelink the lucky buggers but if you work hard your whole life there’s no help from the government when youve paid tax every week and need a hand that’s all I’m saying.
