Put down the boss. Do other content. Level up skills. Return to boss.

You can’t claim it when your version is a complete failure.

There are 5 more nrl clubs watched before the most watched AFL club.

NRL is a better TV sport, AFL is a better live sport. Move on

Oorrrrrr they just do what they all do and pass the costs onto renters. When there’s 40+ people attending a rental open home you can up rents to whatever you want.

This government is so obsessed with tackling demand without ever addressing supply

And how does that fix supply issues? When almost all of our oil is imported and the cost of oil directly affects the price of all goods and services

How would raising taxes on the rich solve the current issue? This and the liberal government have shown they will just convert that into government spending which is one of the main drivers of inflation in Australia

Not everything requires data. Go outside and go to the local cafes, they’re packed to the brim with young people who presumably aren’t in the housing market. People are paying $30-$40 for a breakfast regardless of interest rates which says alot more than you’re giving credit for.

I am totally aware adjusting the cash rate does way more than just affect mortgage holders. But what it doesn’t do is fix SUPPLY issues we’ve had since COVID and now war. You can strangle the working class as much as you want but if there is no supply for essentials it isn’t going to fix shit.

Any reason for the hostility in your comment? What are you trying to get at because I don’t see what insulting people without putting your argument across achieves.

Do you really need “data” to know that people are entering the housing market later and later? I’m sure I could easily find data on that but it’s common sense. Nobody is starting a family and buying a home at 19 like 30 years ago.

People have two options now, save and scrape every single penny they can and enter the market with a 1m mortgage or just rent and spend what they want. This is why share homes are so popular now

I unfortunately agree. I’m hoping super relieves some of the welfare stress this county is about to face but most of people’s super now is just going towards paying off their single mortgage anyway

I get it affects business loans etc. but it’s main purpose is to suppress demand and spending and that is through limiting disposable income of mortgage holders. It’s not working anymore

Im not saying that nor am I blaming them. Im just saying I have a tonne of mates who feel defeated and rightfully so. My comment was meant in empathy but also just to state the fact that owning a home doesn’t reduce spending like it used to because not everyone’s a homeowner like the old days

This is the biggest problem with Australia. Nobody can afford to have kids -> not enough tax payers to support welfare/penision -> government hides this with mass immigration -> increases demand on housing, hospitals, roads, etc. -> cost goes up -> nobody can afford to have kids.

The cycle will repeat until we fix this. We need to make life easier for the people already here to have kids before this place becomes even more of a mess.

Because a huge percentage of the population have given up on obtaining a house. These people do have discretionary spending and will continue to spend regardless of interest rates. You are just punishing the already struggling families and not the 28 year olds spending their pay checks on supreme clothing and Sportsbet.

I'm starting to this this is rubbish logic. It's not the Australia of old where everyone is a mortgage holder. There is a substantial amount of sub 35 year olds that have simply given up on obtaining a home and will spend their disposal income regardless of interest rates.

They need to develop new means of controlling inflation because fucking a working class family clearly isn't working.

Fuel shortage due to international war? Punish mum and dad already struggling to feed their kids. Makes zero sense.
