The present system needs a new direction, people are not percentages on a balance sheet. Just getting help from mental health can take years then you have to go through it all again with Centrelink and try to survive at the same time. As for DSP, in my experience you maybe right, it can be of more harm than good but each case needs individual review not a blanket solution.
