@kikaoldman @lesstenny John Howard did not take the 50% Capital Gains Tax discount to an election. He misled the electorate, so Labor nullified that bad policy.
Home ownership is a long-term investment, so they will still be better off than if they were still renting for the next 5-10 years.

Abuse and suffering continues at Shepparton Victoria. This is "Rev Treasure" about half an hour ago…

@Stewie8t @AmyJDR_awake @Bigly20 A vast majority of farmers don't want fracking on their land -see the lock the gate & other protests, while many more want than don't want the added income of solar & wind to safeguard their income stream during times of drought, especially now as we move into an El Niño phase.

#deadgreyhoundsaus **footage warning**

"Jabberwocky" suffered a right humerus fracture at Shepparton Victoria this afternoon. He's dead, euthanised at the track. Horrific.

Clearly suffering, likely crying out in pain. So cruel.

Three and a half years young, used 48 times, $21,660 in prizemoney for some humans, now dead.

Rest in Peace 🤍

@DIY_Tardis @BurkeHellibee @_davidlimbrick @NewsProspector The historical fact is that the Brits have had 10 major civil wars and plenty of rebellions over the past millennium.

@TimWilsonMP @AmandaRishworth John Howard did not take the 50% Capital Gains Tax discount to an election!
We never voted for its introduction!

@LXLotsofun @3ris9 @Brendon5374 Korea is a basket case; living standards have gone backwards, high workload & stress, household debt about 90% of GDP, the wealth gap is widening, few are having children & an aging population
Japan has had decades of economic stagnation
Singapore relies on a migrant workforce

@Cheryl53111693 @dazzaroo54 Get real! Right-wing extremism is being manufactured in Australia by Gina & the billionaire media class who won't tell the truth to the gullible.
Anyway, do some googling & you'll find there are a number of T-shirt/cloth manufacturers in Australia & some use Australian cotton too

@FartsJurassic @senatorpennyqld @cheryl_kernot Pratt is a hedge your bets donor & has donated over $11 million to both major parties combined over the last decade. He gave the Libs $1.3 million before the 22 election & $1 million to Lab after that election.
He knows all govts are indebted to the ruling powers' corporations.

@quiey52 @strangerous10 The joke's on you when One Nation seeks fighting funds, sucking people in to fight the LNP and the ALP, all without costed and thoroughly thought-through policies. It's what political parties do, right?

[CT Scamping @CazThomas8]

@panonmac @AshPolitik But it was the conservatives who gave us preferential voting to keep Labor out, which worked for many decades. Now you want it cancelled, when voters get to choose the order of who they'd prefer to govern
1998 Howard lost the national vote, got 49% 2PP, but still won the election

@RussellEgan @MFWitches Did you forget there was the 1987 Stock Market Crash (people jumped out of windows on Wall Street)?
Banks here had been on a massive lending binge to high-flyers like Bond for stocks & dodgy property developers, causing construction to stop w/ govt bank bailouts & reversing CG.

@nellesmi1920 @Aussiboxer @Peter_Fitz Labor doesn't control the Senate, so that's a stronger reason she should be there, representing her voters, putting forward amendments, and speaking up when government policy is or isn't fit for the purpose. All she does when she sits is performative gestures for clicks.

@QuentinDempster The idea of ON governing is farcical, given that they've never governed at any level. Many of their MPs quit in their first term, never being in opposition; lack of treasury-costed policies; no foreign policy; & no coherent leadership.
A social experiment far worse than Abbott.
