Letters: What happens when Covid aid finishes?

Letters to the editor and Harry Bruce’s daily cartoon.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR:

COVID FINANCIAL AID ABOUT TO END

The Federal Government financial aid for people losing hours in their employment is about to come to an end.

Covid-19 seems to enjoy the colder months as Covid-19 is some form of fancy flu.

What will happen overseas in the Winter months of the Northern Hemisphere?

We need to watch the Northern Hemisphere so we Australians know what happens next winter in Australia.

The Federal and State governments cannot be a bottomless pit of money for the duration of Covid-19 as it seems this disease will be around for a while.

This disease could send certain countries into bankruptcy. Could Australia be one of them? Interesting thought – bankruptcy of countries.

STUDENTS DESERVE MORE RECOGNITION

Some people try to say that “students are just sitting at a desk”.

I think that this statement is completely incorrect. A student would not get anything “just sitting at a desk”. Students do very difficult academic work while “sitting at a desk”.

This academic work can be much more difficult than lifting a piano.

An example of academic work at a desk can be found in the American Journal of Mechanical Engineering, which is available on the internet.

By reading this journal, the reader should be able to see that studying at a desk can be much more difficult than lifting a piano.
