If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
60.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.5% ... It is complicated
Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

Are you for, or against?
-
9.7% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.1% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.2% Against. I want to deal with people.
