Here's an idea...
Why not support those of us who are studying STEM fields a bit better ?
I am studying Electronic Engineering, after 15 yrs in IT because the LNP party had all my normal work outsourced to India.
Some weeks I can barely afford to eat, because rent takes up 50+% of my AustStudy payment, which hasn't hasn't been tied to CPI for ages. It hasn't kept pace with the cost of rent and living in the city. Part time / Casual work is nearly impossible to find for a student in his mid 30's because I am deemed to old to work in retail / hospitality.
I do get SOME casual work as, essentially a removal guy, who works for a place who specializes in moving IT and office equipment but the work is completely random. Everyone is downsizing their IT and staff operations, and a lot of servers we are moving are "decommissions" because everything is being pushed out to "the cloud"
On the plus side, I have lost about 20Kg since I started, so there is that...
