I am sick of seeing the world "disadvantaged" in the same sentence as Aboriginals.
The word means: "Deprived people considered as a group" Deprived of what?
They get free education all through University if they want it. They get more handouts than any other group in the country and even get a handout for every dog they own. They get free or heavily discounted cars and housing. Food vouchers that they trade for free alcohol, free medical and a host of other things.
How are they deprived? They are always considered first in any case of "us" versus "them" but somehow they seem to always remain 'poor' and "disadvantaged." An advantage is only one if it is taken and used. Many don't or won't and there is a whole other word to describe this kind of behaviour.
