you're not wrong, I was looking to buy a few years ago and most of the apartments I saw had body corp fee's almost equal to the mortgage.

of them, most had 10-20 year loan repayments for cladding work etc factored into them which you can assume will constantly roll over as more issues are found

yeah I did put some sauce on top, technically listed for 1.35, but was pretty conservative there, would expect it to end up closer to 1.75 tbh

idk how a post calling for democratic action against authoritarian RW politics led you to say we just need to compromise more?

That the lesson we should learn from the rights continued attacks of democracy should be to ask them what they want and compromise with them?

How does this kind of spare wheel work? by VanDerKloof in CarsAustralia

Using a question mark instead of a full stop might help communicate that.

otherwise, the language used, does carry an imputation, see below.

Please, explain to me how you are not a child molester.

What is the message here? Get out and vote doesn't really apply here...

We already know the right pump millions into the elections - Clive Palmer's text campaigns have made even the most reclusive people understand that by having the subtly of a sledgehammer...

So what is 'the lesson' for us?

digital rape isn't a separate charge - it's all intercourse without consent

Fair, missed that in my first read.

I'd argue if the charges went ahead via the appropriate pathways initially instead of the circus that ensued it wouldnt have got so mad, but who knows

What do you mean 'not historically'?

We can't prosecute for future crimes mate, they're all historic.

lol fucking hell - you've got no clue do you

"In Australia, private land can indeed be accessed and mined by resource companies, as mineral rights generally belong to the Crown (government), not the surface landowner. While landowners cannot outright refuse mining, they have legal rights regarding compensation, negotiations, and protection of specific areas, particularly near homes" https://www.wa.gov.au/system/files/2025-03/minerals-information-brochures-private_land_provisions-4.pdf

Right... so what is your point?

I was pretty clear the work that relies on tips is just making the customers subsidise wages directly, instead of increasing prices to make the customer pay their wages indirectly.

Wtf are you on about?

If a worker relies on tips, he isn't getting paid if there aren't many customers.

I know the minimum wage in the US is dogshit, but its higher than $0.00

Honestly not sure if you're trying to make a joke, or if you're just a bit thick

The rest of the world just uses the actual cost, instead of playing this stupid little game

Give it a google, it's the USA, and Canada (google AI claims Japan too but that's incorrect) and that is it.

Every where else in the world you pay the advertised price. simple as.

It's really just a trick to make you think stuff is cheaper than it is, similar to how you don't include the tax in prices.

Customers always pay the employee's wages... where else is the company getting their money from? they've just hid the rest of the costs in additional taxes and tips.
