  1. Re:Slightly OT but on 99% of Australians With Broadband By 2009? · · Score: 0

    The US is the land of unpaid overtime, however generally they get paid a reasonable base salary. Since the privatisation of Telstra, wages for full time Australian based I.T staff have dropped an average of 35%. It's hard to get people on 50k AUS a year to work weekends and be on call 24x7 for that sort of money.

    America the land of the free....That is unless you are a prisioner of war, like David Hicks.....Then you are FREE to spend 5 years in a military prison without trial. After serving your sentence, you are FREE to speak to the media about your treatment in Guantanamo Bay. However should you choose to do this within 12 months of being released you will be deported back to the states for further sentencing in yet another trumped up military court.

    Wow I wish I was a free American....Maybe I could choose to starve on the street, like a quarter of the population. However there are much more important things at stake here like the freedom of ICANN.

    Life is like a box of Americans.....You never know what freedom their gunna take next

  8. Re:I don't want perks on Google's Best Perk — Transport · · Score: 0

    Hmmm I live in Australia, everybody is "covered" by Medicare. The government takes 1.5% of your income as the medicare levy and an additional 2.5% medicare levy surcharge if you earn over 50k both levies are compulsary. It's a crappy system, because you still end up paying for the gaps yourself (and there are ALOT of them) or pay a private health insurance premium to cover them. It's not a good idea to not have private health insurance, as you will only ever get a graduate doctor or you end up dying on a 2 year+ waiting list.
