The acts of the judiciary are by design entirely independent of the government. We can’t blame the government for that.
Rehab and support, as well as mental health does come under the government’s remit, however. That said, the support and recognition in these areas has improved immensely since the introduction of the NDIS. IT still isn’t perfect, but it’s the best it has ever been and is still improving.
The cost of living stuff, I’m right ther with you. It’s costing me a fortune just to live in a 3-bedroom townhouse in a reasonable area. I’m paying more to rent here than some jobs on seek are even offering. And I’m hoping to save for a deposit on a mortgage somehow. Which is going to be extra tricky, since I don’t plan to still be in the workforce in 30 years.
But, the truth is: The ludicrous cost of housing benefits far too many Australians for the government to want to tweak that knob too much. If it were suddenly possible to buy a 4 bedroom house in the suburbs for $400k again, the net-worth of a massive chunk of Australians would halve overnight.
