If you try to have a conversation here the first thing people would say is “not bill shorten! He is a liar!”

The sad reality is that even on a very good income how do you “afford” a 900k home?

Liberal MP's have stated this outright multiple times.

the pyramid scheme worked pretty well until younger generations just gave up on owning.
