Australians are anxious about money — and losing faith things will get better. That's according to a major new survey of more than 15,000 Australians which has found that cost of living pressure isn't just the nation's top worry — it's also bleeding into how hopeful people feel about the future.

I'm with you brother. I'm a huge advocate of democratic socialism and would love to see a stronger socialist movement here.

I'm not apathetic, I'm pessimistic 😉. But mostly just exhausted, time poor, and proper poor. I hope that my kids or somebody's kids can bring about meaningful change, but I don't think it's going to happen without some significant pain.
