marketinfo,

no doubt harsh on some, that's why i stated "most".

(& no need to apologise for giving it to me)

point is that a fortnightly increase helps the "old girls" & at the same time limits the "pokie" damage. it's just a better way to do it.

dust,

dispute the facts (if you can) & get over your pity cause pity helps no pensioner. you want to help? give me solutions not pity.

unless you're happy for the lump sum to be blown on pokies & grog. i maintain that a partial increase is far wiser & i maintain that MOST pensioners can't manage money.
