The Invisible Australians

One of the great vehicles for taking the workforce backwards is, of course, the Job Network - the beast that allowed Kev Rudd's missus, Therese Rein, to snaffle millions and millions off the back of the most marginalised people in this country - the unemployed. Whilst in the short term this blogger faces homelessness and a pretty acute version of poverty, I'll be doing some research on the noble institution that is turning the lives of the most underprivileged in Australia into a living nightmare, and hopefully shine a bit of light on some of the wonderful architects of this Orwellian disaster. Feel free share your anecdotes about this profit-from-misery exercise. I will be writing more as information is compiled.
