Monthly market at Uniting Church Hall
Monthly market at Uniting Church Hall, 9 to noon tomorrow, Saturday. Visitor numbers have been on a downhill slide over past months, which is why I'm doing a bit of promoting on local web sites. Although my images are available for sale, what I consider to have been a good market day does not depend on selling anything. What makes a market worthwhile for me are people's' reactions to the display or to particular images, and their subsequent conversation with me. Those conversations and reactions are what make the markets positive for me, sales or no sales. So, fewer visitors means fewer reactions which means I start to question the value of my participating in the market.
I attach a photograph of tomorrow's display.
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?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
