Politicians are elected, in a democracy, to represent their fellow citizens. If they continuously ignore the pleas of the masses for changes, they WILL be voted out at the end of their term of office.
No amount of money can buy votes, if politicians are found ignoring the pleas of their fellowmen.
We are more informed of our rights and will no longer tolerate arrogant politicians.
It is also sad, to note that both major parties in the Australian election, made promises and 'throwing up money in the air, like confettis'. One party "saved" a suburban hospital from closing. What about the whole hospital system for the rest of the country?
It is extremely disappointing that both major political parties in Australia continue to pay lip service to the Aged Care Crisis. I think we should remind them that the dissatisfaction about Aged Care situation in the country is not just the concerns of the elderly. Often, it is the close relatives of the elderly who are speaking out for the frail elderly who cannot voice their concerns.
Those who are touched by any case of Elder Abuse or Aged Care inadequacies will never forget the hurt, the wasted life or injustice done to a close relative or friend. Often we are the ones who will continue to call for changes, because what we witnessed and experienced will haunt us forever.
Join us in working towards better Aged Care. You and your loved ones need that change!
