Comments on: managing the underclass http://indolentdandy.net/fitzroyalty/2008/07/26/managing-the-underclass/ hyperlocal news and reviews about Melbourne's first suburb: Fitzroy 3065 Thu, 11 Mar 2010 11:28:54 +1100 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Anastasia http://indolentdandy.net/fitzroyalty/2008/07/26/managing-the-underclass/#comment-19457 Anastasia Fri, 25 Jul 2008 15:13:57 +0000 http://indolentdandy.net/fitzroyalty/?p=1695#comment-19457 It's an interesting discussion. If the issues arose years ago I'd have a different answer to the one I have today, but I tend to agree that there are many out there who are incapable of processing basic common sense and ironically enough they're the ones who end up with jobs in corporations because they don't have to think, they're just drones and that's the way corporations like it. So it's like another form of underclass or service related class, the human conveyor belt if you will. I still see women with children (average birth rate, one every two years) so they can receive the parenting payment, and I think they're in self denial, because it's obvious that they'll experience more pressure as the children age, and I don't even want to think about the rise in anti-social behavior among tomorrow's teenagers, and can they be blamed when the government avoids the problem in the same way a middle-manager does? Our education system in Australia went to pieces years ago, overseas students have a better chance of entering university courses than homegrown kids who study here, because of course popularity, the government doesn't give many subsidies to universities so universities have to get their funds from overseas students. It's all quite complicated and has become complicated due to the common approach that is seen in corporations every day: 'put it in the too hard basket and pass the buck.' I'm still trying to work out whether the Australian governments baby bonus is a racist agenda to 'encourage' more Australian births. It’s an interesting discussion.
