white business, including governments have been overcharging and engaging in fee abuse for decades -------
hardly a squeak is heard ----------------- yet if your Aboriginal - it's atrocious
when I was in Laos --------------- to get my signature witnessed by the Australian Embassy ------ meaning that I walk in the door and sign my name in front of someone ------------ 15 seconds time
that I was 'forced' to pay 50 bucks for the privilege
now --------- get this. I had to pay cash.
but -- my own embassy doesn't accept Australian currency ------------ the payment had to be in US dollars, new not old notes.
how's that one? -------------- and do we hear Ozzies squeak about that? - nope.
As to charging fees ---------- my god. Try doing anything at all with property in Australia in so many places - or buying services.
yet when aboriginal people learn the system and use it themselves - omg, there's hell to pay
I suggest we clean up our own act first
