This was the moment the climate debate shifted - if only a little.
It was a moment of pure clarity & facts.
Love or hate Alan Jones, he nails it here and it is worth another listen.
HOLY SHIT, the Australian government has subsidised more than 48,000 non-citizen migrants to buy homes in Australia since 2023.
The government is subsidising non-citizens to buy homes in Australia even if they have property overseas.
The First Home Owner scheme allows non-citizens to purchase homes in Australia with a 5% deposit, regardless of whether they own a home overseas.
The Australian government acts as a guarantor for the remaining 15 per cent of the deposits, allowing the first homebuyer to avoid paying lenders mortgage insurance (LMI)
Last week, Housing Australia announced that since eligibility for the 5% Deposit Scheme was expanded in mid-2023 to include permanent residents and joint applicants, “more than 48,000 permanent residents have been supported, along with over 2700 family and friend group applicants purchasing a home together - demonstrating the Scheme’s responsiveness to the needs of modern households”
This is actually an incomprehensible disaster, I think we can pretty much say that Australia is one of the worst run Western developed economies
@generalsteez69@AGPamBondi This is funny for 3 reasons:
1. You clearly don’t understand the contracts they sign
2. That you think the AG give a 💩 about your post
3. Your stupid nameless anonymous account does not get a valid opinion when you have to hide who you are
@daniel_gonano@andrewbogut Who cares which one of our idiot leaders in the past set this up. It’s costing you and me billions in tax dollars. It has to be identified, called out and fixed. Look forward not backward.
@Shane00 Completely agree. The Bron hating has gone too far. The haters just need to accept that he’s the second or third best player ever and move on.
