Is the introduction of means testing for welfare payments such as the baby bonus really going to bring us all closer together - or just reinforce a class divide and "us vs. them" mentality? 

Without commenting too much on the details of the Federal Budget, many of which I have an opinion on, there is one aspect of its framing and delivery that, to put it mildly, got me rather cranky.

I am, along with many others I am sure, very tired of constantly hearing the term "working family" and what apparently qualifies you as one. There are many questions I have - if you are not a "working family" - then what are you? Is there a term that covers the rest of us? If you work ("working") and have a family ("family") - but you earn a high income - does that mean you suddenly are something else?
