FIRST NATIONS FOUNDATION
Taking a gamble to steady the ship as chief executive of First Nations Foundation, Phil Usher has turned it into a more secure, self sustaining entity, far better equipped to empower First Nations people to achieve financial prosperity. Andrew McKean writes.
As if the super system isn't complex enough....
Leave it to the Greens and we'll all be in a bigger mess than we are today.
Let's allow some experienced business people to make decisions from now on.
If it's all about helping those on low-incomes why did I invest so much time and money (that I didn't have at the time) on my education to drag myself out of a low-income future...maybe I shouldn't have bothered...just wait for the handouts....Labor and Greens to the rescue...gotta love a class war when we have compulsory voting don't you.
