Dear Editor The Advertiser,
I am appalled that Rann Labor is now going to take more rent money from the less advantaged of our community living in housing trust homes.
How can they still call themselves Labor when they now want any working child, who lives in a Trust House at home with his/her parents to now have to contribute directly to the government, 15% of their take home income.
Don't the people who live in government homes deserve a break to improve their life too?
Don't their children deserve all the help they can get to improve their well being and perhaps eventually save enough of their income, to buy their own modest home?
Not under Rann Labor apparently.
What has happened to Labor values under the leadership of Premier Mike Rann?
To say I am disgusted with this decision is an understatement.
Labor used to be the champion of redistribution of wealth.
For Jennifer Rankine to say it is unfair for ordinary taxpayers to be subsidising the rent of the less well off, is total rubbish.
Why do we elect a Labor government?
And where is Monsignor Cappo's public view on this. We are paying him handsomely from taxpayers money apparently for social inclusion, not social exclusion.
Mike Rann, and Jennifer Rankine, I am appalled. Shame on you. Shame!
