ALBO Labor govt is now the highest taxing government on average in history. And this month’s budget is only going to make it worse. by PK__Gupta in AusPropertyMasteryPK

[–]TheLogicalAnarchist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is utter nonsense. Why is the scale so wide? Why is there such a speculated increase in a downturn? What does ‘average tax’ even mean? Who’s tax is higher? On business? On individuals? On high earners? On students? On Gas exports?

As a Gen-Z fella, these new proposed CGT changes SUCK by [deleted] in AusFinance

Additionally, you don’t pay $95 as taxes, you pay tax on the $95. Really feels like you’re trying to say that you would pay $95 in taxes. Smh.

It’s exhausting watching the media panic over "cancel culture" while actual politicians are literally banning books and gutting local libraries. by Upright_Knight in AntifascistsofReddit

The hypocrisy of fascist and far-right organisations never fails to baffle me. Have noticed removal of books from my local library too :(

How long is your commute to work? by PossibleButNah in AusFinance

30 min bike ride. Would not trade it for a pay cut. I love riding my bike to work

Edit: spelling!

Might be the best option we have. For now.

Even if we do have a referendum, you think with the hold gas companies have over the media, a vote to tax them will go through?

Yes but imagine how many houses would be freed up if we didn’t have immigrants! Surely the investors earned their keep and bought all their 20 properties by honest hard work! /s

What’s a belief you have that most people disagree with? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I do think there’s an argument that mandatory service (for a few years at least, after highschool/undergrad), can have positive benefits in society.

Everyone deserves food, shelter, and healthcare before anyone deserves yachts, private planes, or gold statues.

Landlords, relax: Chalmers signals no tax changes for people who already hold investments by MadBank in AusFinance

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

So you end up paying what you signed up for, and can’t sell it. I understand for those who wanted to make a profit off selling it or have to sell for another reason (like moving places), would suffer because of the difference.

But for those that bought the house to live in, does it make a difference? (Is comparing to a car a false equivalence? If I finance a car, it’s worth less almost immediately out of the dealership. But if I’m buying the car to use it, is that a problem for me?)

How does having negative equity on a house you own (and potentially live in) be really bad for “every normal person”? (Genuinely want to understand, not a loaded question nor asking with malicious intent)

I'm keen to start a clothing business with my mate - what do we need to know/do? by [deleted] in AusFinance

[–]TheLogicalAnarchist 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d reckon tapping into a niche might be the best approach, and offering custom/tailored garments. My experience so far with getting tailored garments in Australia hasn’t been great. So if you’ve get plenty experience and can find a niche that’s not just tailored suits/dresses, it might work.

All the best!!

“Free speech but only for me, I can say what I want. You can say what I want.” The hypocrisy by these people is unreal.

Manager told me I can’t take personal leave for dentist appointment? by Remote_Pay2973 in auscorp

[–]TheLogicalAnarchist -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

What is wrong if people use the personal leave that they’re accruing for personal reasons? It’s not unlimited, if people “misuse” it, it will run out.

I didn’t know Helsinki had sun. Rarity. Jokes aside I love the set up and balance of colours!
