Hey Jim, can you #RaiseTheRate ?
Yeahnah, how bout some roads and a surplus?

Even if you do qualify for the full 'independent' rate of youth allowance, It's $639.00 a fortnight, or $319.50 a week...

It's very tricky to get rent assistance in a sharehouse setting, but even if you dom THAT tops out at $63/wk IF you're paying more than $157 a week rent...

Thank you to Janet for fighting for welfare recipients throughout your time in the Senate!
