I wonder when AUSTRAC will realise that money laundering is a core pillar of these businesses, not incidental crime from operating a legit business.

Probably never, hey.

    Pfft Just a fine? No jail time?

    If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the lower class.

    Should be more. They're a casino, they've got the money. And if they dont, they can go scrounge some up from the shareholders.

    Does this mean I get back the pineapple I spent while a bit tipsy in 2018?

    I'm still sure I won.

    But seriously, nothing winds me up more than Packer's Pecker. It's an embarrassment to all NSW. The NSW government bent over and took it sideways, adding all sorts of exceptions and infrastructure, turned off all Sydney nightlife, just for Packer and casinos. And then he bailed when he saw he wasn't going to make a quid. Grrrrrrrr!
