Former Liberal Treasurer Joe Hockey has advised Australians wanting to buy their first home to "get a good job that pays good money". Opposition Leader Bill Shorten immediately decried Mr Hockey's comment as "insulting" and reminiscent of his "poor people don't drive cars" remark.What do you think of that?

Getting a good paying job is difficult in itself and not even guaranteed you will be able to purchase a home even if your job pays good. Agree with Bill Shorten. I don’t really know.

There are now 65,000 more young people on the voting roll after Same Sex Marriage - what difference if any will it make?
Young people are clearly more involved, it will show that they obviously have things they care about and are passionate about (wow! who knew!!) and can make a difference. Hopefully people will take young people’s voice seriously, seeing that they have influence.

Can young people change things by voting? Do we have a real democracy?
Young people can for sure make a difference, getting involved is a step in the right direction.

(can you please clarify the online tasks please. its confusing and i'm kind of unsure if i'm answering the right question)

Former Liberal Treasurer Joe Hockey has advised Australians wanting to buy their first home to "get a good job that pays good money".Opposition Leader Bill Shorten immediately decried Mr Hockey's comment as "insulting" and reminiscent of his "poor people don't drive cars" remark.

unfortunately getting a job is really hard and at many time when young people do get a job, they are connected to the people they get the job from. this comments from Joe hockey are very poor, the cost of housing is on a rise making it even more difficult

Australia has 65,000 new young voters so what does this mean for elections?

clearly this shows that young people do care about what is happening in their communities/ country.

Can young people change things by voting?

yes they definitely can, that doesn't mean the age of when a young person should vote should change. the more experience the more understanding. simple.

Question 1:

Obtaining work with a good salary can be quite difficult, and even having a job that pays well still does not guarantee that young people will be able to afford to buy a home, especially due to the rising cost of housing.

Question 2:

The same sex marriage vote concluding positively, will allow young people to feel empowered and see that their voice is being heard. This may influence young people to vote for other causes as they feel like they have a voice in their society, a voice that is now being heard.

Question 3:

Young people ad up to a high percentage of the population, if majority of young people begin to vote their votes can really pave the way for change. ]]> 2018-03-14 01:00:06 UTC https://padlet.com/efpana/f06udbx0cvpi/wish/241678148 Kirk Wednesday Class https://padlet.com/efpana/f06udbx0cvpi/wish/241678330 Question 1: Getting a job in itself can be hard. Now-a-days one must have heaps of qualifications to get into the positions. Even then, once you finish a course, there'll be like thousands of others trying to get the same spot, making it even harder.

Question 2: I believe that even 1 vote can make change. As shown in some campaigns, sometimes it comes close to only like 50 votes. So the 60,000 young people voting would easily be a big portion and change voting.

Question 3: Young people can make change, and are slowly gaining voice themselves (or through youth work). As for true democracy, it's hard to say. It would be great to say yes, but it only truly works everybody has a say]]> 2018-03-14 01:01:08 UTC https://padlet.com/efpana/f06udbx0cvpi/wish/241678330
