Pensioners missed out the most

It has come to my attention that since the COVID-19 lockdown, the only people that are missing out on financial relief are the pensioners.

Yes, we got the $1,500 stimulus package, but so did the people on unemployment benefits, and since the start, they have had double their fortnightly payment, so none of them are going to look for work.

Pensioners are really struggling to make ends meet and now, just to top it off, we miss out on our meagre pension rise.
