This change to the Disability Pension is as well thought out as SWANies change your home loan with no penalities. He forgot the big cost Lenders Mortgage Insurance & the reduce equity in most properties & most cases they cannot refinance due to the LMI costs. Banks are also not keen to do refinancing.

These pensioners are getting a liveable lifestyle in the Philippines, Bali & Thailand. There they can afford to pay rent From $100 per month cheaper electricity & still get good medical treatment without being a burden on the Medical system in Aus. Food costs are less than half of the costs here. So why cannot they have a bit of comfort in their lives.

What annoys me about the Singles pension is that it is not reduced to the base rate for the single Mums how are getting Maintainence. I have seen many cases of single Mums making it a business by having kids for the sole purpose of getting Maintainence out of high income earners.

If the maintainance is over the pension amount then there should be NO PENSION. Either that or the Asian welfare method. NO work No money Its up to your family to Support you not the Government & tax payers
