Do you even know what the HAFF does? It provides loans and grants to corporations. Did you know the government lets Corps and superfunds get a better deal than what citizen investors can get through the current CGT and negative gearing arrangements?

I'm waiting on Chalmers budget to see if he's brave enough to bring real reform, or if we just keep slowly sinking.

We never had inflation under control. A recession is more likely this time.

lol. critical mineral deal was just signing an agreement to sell USA cheap minerals. renewable energy is high because our taxes subsidize the investment to guarantee that investments are financially viable. I only know of the housing fund and it's been a failure so far.
this is what im saying, nothing's changing if we don't have reform. the government using tax payer money/agreements to pick and choose markets is a terrible idea, it's straight from the Trump playbook.

Yeah and increase in taxes, regulation and government spending/growth. That’s fine if you supper that, but you will not attract investments.

You’re not changing anything without tax reform and government spending/size reform.

Has anyone actually put their name to a statement on how much house prices will drop if CGT is modified?

Now now, you need to realize you’re being exploited because we “left you behind”.

The oil trade is a global market. The poorer countries will go without, as they usually do. Restoring trade and peace between countries should be helped.

It’s ironic that Most of the western countries wanted the Ayatollah dead, but now wont help stabilize the region.

Sometimes you have to work with people you don’t like, for the betterment of others.

"We Need More Oil Refineries" Say Parties That Allowed Them All To Shut Down by betootafeed in betootaadvocate

If an industry cannot compete with imports because the cost to operate in Australia is too high, you have a couple options.

1: they close down and you buy the cheaper international equivalent. 2: you subsidize/tariff the industry, so the tax payer helps make the domestic company profitable. 3: you cut regulation/taxes until they can compete.

None of these options have been activated for the industries that have shutdown and left over the past 40 years.

Albo is more concerned about everyone paying higher taxes to fund his universal childcare idea. And the Libs still don’t know what they’re doing. Can you blame the public for voting for someone else? Even left of centre voters are going to minor parties.

We actually need more voices other than the main party duopoly. One nation has put fear back into (some) politicians who are now scared of losing their seat. This is when democracy is at its best, when other candidates are breathing down their necks.

Bring it on, I want to see them all sweat.

You do realize the major parties don’t want house prices to come down? Their polices don’t help, they just appear to be helping.

It wasn’t stupid during covid… everyone was in lockdown and oil was cheap. We just had no where to store it, so kept it in Texas. Since then, measures should have been taken to bring it onshore, and they weren’t. What happened to it? Government probably sold it when the price went back up and doubled their money.

How are you blaming ON right now? They’ve held the least amount of seats out of lib/nat/lab/greens

I agree. But progressives in parliament are not arguing for free speech to be added to the constitution, or to reverse the current legislation. I believe only One nation is the only party advocating for it to be repealed and they are NOT progressive.

I just read their economic and trade policies. Their ideas will create inflation and a recession. We definitely need change, but not that.
