Australia is fighting for democracy in other parts of the world, yet is failing to practice it at home!!

Also imagine going to A Nursing Home were your Loved Ones are being poorly looked after because someone is being forced to do something they dont want to do.

If there is a penalty for not working then it is not voluntary. If the exchange is a payment of some sort for the work done then it must be paid for at the market rate. This would then be in addition to the 'dole' and taken as work done by the recipient in their attempt to gain experience and useful work and would be recorded by Centrelink as an adjustment to the following fortnight's payment as is I beleive currently done. Otherwise = immoral.
