It's not going to be fun to be at either end of the spectrum, retirees self-funded or otherwise and those new to the workforce are really going to suffer.Think they read the room with the polls giving a clear indication of the likely result but still wasted the money when they should have just legislated instead and at least had something working moving forward and not leaving this division we seem to have now due to politics being the priority rather than people. Albanese got voted in to Govern not throw responsibility and blame back to the Electorate and Dutton's only interest was getting political milage out of Labor fails so none of it was a recipe for success.
I've associates in Peru who having just been slammed by the pandemic then coped it in the neck over industrial and social reforms coming out of what they describe as communist rule (Left Wing). What is / has happened there I believe is not so much a Peru specific issue but a precursor to what is about to happen to large portion of the global population. Peru is quite liberalist and as such it makes a good model for the west.
In some regard the referendum itself and it's fall is a failure of many to read the room!
Everything major gets politicised in Aus which never leads to good outcomes......
