The NDIS is out of control | John Kehoe

- The Australian economy has performed better than most economists predicted a year ago. However, probe deeper and things look disturbing. We face not just a productivity drought, but runaway government spending programs that, left unchecked, will lead to budget deficits and stagnation or decline in living standards.
Australia, as Treasury’s Intergenerational Report warned last year, will become older, more indebted, spend big on social services, grow slower, have weaker income growth and tax working-age people more over coming decades. Savings need to be found, but where?
Australia is now one of the biggest government spenders on disability in the world, according to the OECD - more than double the UK and Canada, and on track to go past the European welfare states of Iceland, Finland and Sweden. The National Disability and Insurance Scheme, which is projected to blow past $100 billion a year, needs to be curtailed. But how?
John Kehoe is economics editor of the Australian Financial Review and a former Washington correspondent.

I had this exact argument with my well intentioned mate in 2010 or so when they were talking about implementing this.
1. Apply an assets test to it
2. Require people to put in a request with justification for any spending
3. A proper audit process
Centre for Independent Studies, This made me so happy! I liked and subscribed!
What is wrong with a "Small Australia" ? We do not want a "Big Australia" !
Much thanks. Carry on!
The other thing that is very surprising to hear in this talk was the fact that he demonised some of the top countries in Europe as welfare states! Isn’t it that they are among the world's happiest and most prosperous countries!?
They are also paying A LOT MORE TAX ....
‘Low unemployment rates’… yep because Ndis pretty much replaced work for the dole, with previous care people with no experience with an abn can earn max rate (max hr prices were meant for community orgs and services with over heads, staff super & tax, insurance/ liability costs etc.) of $55-$110p/hr. It’s why blue care don’t do ndis, because they can’t compete to pay staff, and losing all their quality and experienced staff, and also why burnt out hospital nurses are jumping ship in hospitals and just join mable, hire-up, care seekers etc and can charge $100p/hr and pick their hours and generally working just 1 on 1 with people. Pretty much once government got involved it imperialised disability support sector and turned it into Centrelink by removing community/ block funding and forcing people to pay people themselves. Like you better off asking for two people to carry you around all day then asking for a wheelchair to get around yourself as tend to be easier and quicker to get extra $50k in your plan reviews to pay support, then $5k for a wheelchair to be more independent and then be needing less. People are having to go to court to get a medical bed funded or reject a foldable curb/ gutter ramp because accessibility in the community is a council issue, like health care isn’t there problem and pushed all that onto the hospitals
Autism burnouts are series problems, so many adults undiagnosed because costs of adult autism testing costs are much to high.
Autism diagnosing where lacking 15 to 20+ years ago so many went undiagnosed and are still undiagnosed.
You can thank the 10 years of neglect from the Coalition for the state of the NDIS. Labor has plans to fix the NDIS to its original form and crack down on the fraud and corruption and ineligible providers and the ones charging over priced and unnecessary services, which has run rampant during the Coalition years.
All the beneficial changes the Labor government has made for Australians like Medicare, superannuation NDIS, the coalition try to destroy and degrade out of spite.
Why would Australians have such high rates of autism if it’s only 1% worldwide? Surely this needs more attention and investigation surely it should concern the nation?
Because it's underdiagnosed in the rest of the world? Or the higher risk of having an autistic child for mature (40+) parents? The third/quarter of the world still has "the survival of the fittest" policy when it comes to healthcare to start with.
No because of hormones allowed in fish and animal farming
The use of hormones in food producing animals faces different legal regulations in different countries. The European Union prohibits the use of substances with hormonal or thyreostatic action and β-agonists in food producing animals, including aquaculture (EC, Citation1996, Citation2003, Citation2008). Other countries such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina and the United States allow for the use of natural steroid hormones, such as testosterone, progesterone and 17β-estradiol, as well as the synthetics zeranol and trenbolone acetate. In those countries, only residues from synthetic compounds with maximum residue levels (MRLs) are controlled because they are considered to be the most potent endocrine compounds

It takes a mild level of sociopathy to attack spending on disability and focus purely on the fiscal issues. This entire society is set up against people with a disability. By definition they cannot participate fully in the labour market and support themselves like we who are abled and educated can. It is our duty as a society, as constructors of this workforce driven way of being, to protect those who we exclude from participating. Anything less is unethical and irredeemable. You can talk about the cost all you want, come up with ways to reduce it, plan for a more long term and viable system, but it needs to come from a place of accepting that WE created this problem and that human lives, their very health and well being is being discussed, not simple dollars. Society owes people with a disability for creating a system that excludes them. To do otherwise is immoral and heartless.

Doesn't need to be any more complicated than that.
