Do NOT get ill - or pregnant

[Oh_hunnihunni]

One of my neighbours has to have a tooth out urgently, and being of limited means she went to Winz on the advice of her dentist to request help to pay for it, understanding that there was an entitlement of a dental funding grant of $1000, that she could access. But no. Because she lives in social housing, there is a new policy to be applied. No financial help of any kind is to be offered to tenants in social housing, no matter what the circumstances. Any applications for financial help are to be severely examined, applicants are required to open their bank accounts to prove need. No accommodation allowances, no disability allowances, no non recoverable grants - and all of us, including superannuitants are being record checked by Winz staffers to identify those of us receiving such assistance, and to remove it.

Well, I guess they have to pay for those tax cuts somehow...
