You have basically just described taxfraudmaxxing. White collar crimes are the beta pussays of crimes, I have more respect for welfarecels.

Is there a divide between east/west in Australia? What is the consensus on Adelaide? I’m intrigued.

Not really east/west more like Melbourne and Sydney vs the rest of the country.

Then after people from Melbourne/Sydney are done show off their sense is superiority snobbiness to the other cities they go back to battling each other in the war of the most populated, over priced with nothing to do city down under.

Then there’s Perth out west just doing it’s own thing all alone.

-kids have bad grades cause all they do is play footy all day…
-they learn to do their jobs well enough not to get fired too often.
- pay really isn't very good but they rack up massive loads of overtime.
- slightest slowdown in the economy they either get hours cut or laid off.
- wife leaves them and they lose what little they have and everything falls apart.
- goes after barely legal sloots but ends up settling with some single mom with bratty kids
- their skill set maxes early and they never learn anything new so they are in the same spot year after year.
- brags they are better than the new kid that has only been there for a week.
- new kid gets better than them 3 weeks later and they brag that they taught him everything.
- they don't keep up with new technology.
- as they get older their body breaks down 3x as fast as normal. They hit 40 but their body is 70.
- they don't retire, they just can't do the job anymore so they go on welfare or disability, some just die young.
