What is wrong with Centrelink? Explain, I am on a pension for about 10 years now since I came back from Thailand bankrupt, I get a good pension, rent assistant, electricity assistant, cheap bus fares and free travel to other cities 600km away so what are you talking about?

Like I said, "Living the dream" but someone has to pick up the tab.

It used to be that way, but in recent times, if you are on Centrelink, it's living the dream. 

 

Do retirees who are not on Centrelink get "rent assistant, electricity assistant, cheap bus fares and free travel to other cities 600km away" etc etc etc etc?  Nah, they pay full freight.
