A single decision can change your life, and that's exactly what Centuria Capital joint chief executive Jason Huljich learned when he came to Australia in the 1990s. Eliza Bavin writes.
What a great idea ! Heath costs are spiralling and having unfortunatley been involved in a lengthy surgical wait {even with cover} going without this service is like riding around on a bumpy road with a gun to your head SOONER OR LATER IT WILL GO OFF !!
Who pays the health costs of those people who never work, on the dole, on drugs or who come to Australia as illigal immigrants at a late age and become a total burden on tax payers?The answer is: The tax-payer. So why should I pay extra money into super to support my health ? I pay taxes to support my health and I expect to get the same health benefits as those who do not contribute, FREE.
