The Indigenous people in this country get a consistently raw deal from those in power. Australians are still waking up to the entrenched racism in our government.
I fear it is not only the youth that goes on a crime spree. With the high fuel prices, food prices through the roof (for us, exported food is still sold cheaply) , power price climbing in line with the space shuttle, rental accommodation too dear or not available , extra government taxes and charges, it will soon be all the pensioners and poor of our society that will be forced to crime in order to survive.
It is happening now

What really gives me the shits is that the politicians appear to not give a damn.
@anglophone It seems to be the same attitude with many governments. The potential solutions are usually simple although implementing them through government agencies are a nightmare.
@Betty And the importance of adequate funding seems to be lost on the decision makers. Cut $100,000 from the support service, and see $1,000,000 direct additional consequent cost elsewhere.
@anglophone It is always the vulnerable that pay the price for governmental budget cuts. Greed is always at the bottom of the problems.
