well, they probably are right. Rent amounts have been “subsidised” for years by the hopeful speculator who expects to make a small motza when they sell the property in a few years, while feeling all warm and snuggly about the tax deduction they were accruing, and they had to be, because very few people could afford the level of rent required to actually justify the prices that properties were selling at.

Oh, wait, what was that other ABC article about people unable to afford rent and shanty towns? :(

I’d like to think it would go better if they phrased it like “someone who speculates on housing contributes less to society than the carpenters…” but it wouldnt, people are selfish sods and don’t realise the greater benefit we all receive by pooling our resources with this thing called “taxes”.

Australia actually has more than enough houses, they’re just owned by investors
Over the past 10 years, the number of new homes has been growing faster than the population. Read that sentence again if you need to, but doing so won’t change the facts.

How can they be a tax write off if no tax was ever paid?!?
How does the ATO allow that?

I have a chicken on my verandah.
I do not own any chickens (anymore) but my neighbours do, and the girls regularly come to annoy^h^h^h visit us.
Maybe we have nicer grass?
Anyway, yesterday I put out seed for the King Parrots on the back verandah, and some of it fell through, as it always does, and I suspect she has eaten the stuff down below then gone where did this come?, looked up and gone aha! and then figured out that the stepped structure would let her get up to The Seed Source
Clever girl.
Clever annoying girl.
I see "cleaning chook shit off my verandah" in my future :(
(I went to shoo her off, but missed and she took off down the verandah, rather than down the stairs. Sighs :( Hopefully she is just as clever about figuring out how to get off the verandah as she was getting on. But time will tell )

from memory, i think it was like 10 kms (ish), which would cover, umm, probably 300 households (its been several years since looked at it, because, you know, we’ve given up. Starlink got us online)
The rumour at the time was nbn were estimating 3ish million for the job.
But its important to remember that the National Broadband Network is about returning a profit, not providing a service- what kind of dumb idea would that be? :(
