@ausstockchick You don’t have to be Nostradamus to see that Australia’s living standards are going to plunge because of our nett zero cult delusions. Adding rapidly to immigration is just putting the icing on.
With a government so hostile to enterprise and wealth creation , why come here?
@craigkellyAFEE I don’t know why ordinary anxieties aren’t enough for the climate doomsday cult?
3 decades of high anxiety and squandered capital.
Massive long term damage to the economy though.
@craigkellyAFEE Litmus test of loyalty to a politically loaded cultural take that is unworthy of an elected representative.
“Trans women are women” is also a red flag of ideological self delusion.
Gaslighting that wouldn’t fly 2 decades ago.
@craigkellyAFEE Our new generation of perpetual moral busybodies is disappointing but not a surprise. Experience counts for little and loyalty is limited to your identity groups.
Politicians see it as their role to torment you for your own good.
@bowtiedstocks No need for a crystal ball, just come down to Tassie where this has been the case for the last decade.
Our unemployment rate is the lowest in the country, but ironically so to is our participation rate.
Social indices are embarrassing as a rule, apart from machete crime.

Making 16 year olds the targets of political ideologists won’t arrest this process.
@AlboMP Wondered why our local Thai has gone takeaway from a caravan food van.
Soon I imagine most of our local ethnic restaurants will go the same way.
@craigkellyAFEE Even more galling for entrepreneurs is that many of those bureaucrats are in bullshit jobs where they run interference on change and development.
@MrRexPatrick@ayrestim They stumped up and signed the long term contracts without which the gas was never going to be developed.
Rule of law you hindsight trolls.
Sovereign risk is what you are extolling.
