Synopsis

This Australian fire season the Government has pushed Volunteer Fire Fighters past, miles past the concept of volunteering your time to benefit your community. Work that is an essential public service is work and should be recognised as such.The shed applies loose understandings of "The Right-Wing Ratchet" "Trickle Down Economics" as a lens to view the exploitation of volunteer firefighters who at 100 days went past volunteering a while ago.From here the tangents come thick and fast, dis-information, voter suppression, thresholds of fact-checking, franking credits, death taxing, propaganda wars, SCOMO on holidays...Identity politics = a divided community suits those driving the wedge.
