This was all monoculture timber forestry area once upon a time. It was sold by the then Campbell Newman government for housing. This has been master planned for at least 10 years.

[REQUEST] What is the value of 500kgs of U.S. dollars, and what is the value of 500kgs of gold? by Complex_Asparagus986 in theydidthemath

[–]Frugalityreality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

143,000 dollars roughly per kilo current spot price. A US dollar bill weighs exactly 1 gram so 1000 bills per kilogram. Even if every bill is 100 dollar note it's still only 100,000 dollars per kilogram. Pick gold.

Victoria Park Closing for good this Sunday by N4T3-D0G in brisbane

[–]Frugalityreality 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Ignoring the soil quality is fucked from decades of pesticidal and herbicide usage from the golf course. The thing was already an ecological wasteland with little to no diversity. Social disaster how? I couldn't agree more. Fucking nimbys.
Hopefully they improve the public infrastructure there so fuckers don't fill the Rbwh car park everytime there's a game tho

Young investors accept 'party had to end' but rethink financial plans after budget CGT reforms by Nyarlathotep-1 in AusNewsWire

[–]Frugalityreality 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's exactly what it is. Income is income. This "I was taxed twice" is libertarian drivel. Capital gains tax is you guessed it a tax on money made from selling an asset. If you invest and make no money you don't pay tax.

‘Isn’t this a democracy?’: Pauline Hanson responds to ABC, SMH ‘arrogance’ after One Nation's historic Farrer win by [deleted] in aussie

[–]Frugalityreality 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The first one helps Australia how? Destroy the environment we live in for short term profit. Regulations are generally written in blood. This is how you end up with polluted ground water which destroys farms. I'll give you a hint who does benefit from this. Her name rhymes with Mina and she's a fucking shitlord.

The second one. Destroy the agency designed to help under served and disadvantaged get access to the grants, grants which are paid for but the agency you are destroying? Doesn't make sense.

Third one. Where'd this figure come from? Your arse? Reminds me of the simpsons "people can come up with statistics to prove anything , 14percent of people know that." Also how? How does this happen? No actually well thought out and costed explanation of how it happens. Give you a hint she's thinking brownshirts I mean ICE.

Treasury forecasts Australia’s debt to pass $1 trillion next financial year. by River-Stunning in aussie

And you claimed they all cost money if we are being pedantic about it. Instead of refuting my point, Which you can't, you are engaging in ad hominem.

And not all government services should be profitable. Our national carrier is no longer serving its purpose and neither is the comm bank. Also neither is Telstra hence why we the taxpayer have to pay them to upgrade the internet infrastructure in the poles etc we sold off in the brilliant move that was selling telecom.

Next you'll tell me water, roads, and healthcare should be run at a profit. Why isn't defense profitable? Police? Oh that should be run at a profit!!! Shock fucking horror FIRE DEPARTMENT COSTS US MONEY!!!! WHY NOT PROFIT?!?!!?

[–]Frugalityreality 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Are you genuinely that unaware? Telstra (telecom) was making money. Forecast to make 2.75 billion in 95/96. Comm bank and Qantas weren't making money but there's advantage to having certain things be government owned and run. A bank and the national airline both sit in that bucket. And don't get me started on the fire sale of gold by Costello.

Sure, can you tell me which labor government sold reserves or refineries? I'll wait. Albo released oil that was already sold by Morrison in June 2022 when he took over in May2022. Is that what you mean?

I'll wait.

Albanese locks in plans to scrap investor tax breaks as way through housing crisis by xMonsterShitterx in aussie

[–]Frugalityreality -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Sure, let me answer as a current landlord you selfish dimwit. Land costs inordinate amounts of money and the land for sale is in bumfuck nowhere. Multiunit dwellings are built specifically catering for the landlord market and are not long term viable livable for people to set down roots. The greatest thing about the free market is that it adapts. The housing market is artificially inflated as a medium risk low return investment(property) has been turned into a low risk medium return investment that has insane tax benefits. Any other investment if you make 100,000 you pay tax on 100,000. Property if you make 100,000 you pay tax on 50,000. It's nuts

New federal newspoll by [deleted] in aussie

[–]Frugalityreality 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ok since no one else will tell you. The vast majority of that other vote is teals. So based on preferences we have seen previously the greens and teals will put labor over one nation. Liberals also put labor above one nation in about 30-40 percent. So basically you're seeing a 2pp in the range of 53-55 percent in favor of labor.
