LOL Stop gaslighting. You just said in a previous interview that YOU DO NOT WANT house prices to come down. How can you improve affordability if that does not occur? Force businesses to pay twice the wage? Force the RBA to drop the interest rate to zero?
You wouldn't even consider slashing the immigration rate as One Nation will.
People should not be asking whether they want to own a "piece" of SpaceX for the company and Elon's vision of the future. (which I am super excited about and fully support and DO want to own)
It should be whether owning that PIECE at IPO pricing/extreme valuation is the financially smart/logical choice over waiting for a better opportunity to get in once the initial volatility subsides and the initial "hype" has died down. (and that hype WILL die down)
Hey, I own TSLA, and its valuation is EXCESSIVE relative to many shares. But SpaceX's IPO valuation is already BEYOND this (record high), and people expect it to double/triple in no time.
It's one thing to be emotionally attached to the company's vision (I am, too), but another to use that emotion to make a financial decision.
No different to those holding those bitcoins with diamond hands. (which I am super bullish about its future...but I don't hold forever)
@TruthFairy131@PaulineHansonOz@Allegedlydlive Are you advocating for mass deportation of all non-Whites, including those who were born here with no citizenships elsewhere? If they don't listen, by force then? Be realistic as this will never happen.
They want mass deportation of all non-whites. Including those born here with no citizenship elsewhere. (like telling my kids to apply for asylum in other countries or be forcefully deported)
And some of you here are calling it "fact".
These are definitely far-right white supremacists. Luckily, it will never happen. No political party would ever get a majority on this.
@jgrosdubois@PlauDD@BernieSanders What government? I don't even live in the US. You supporting stealing from everyone else on this planet? Go ahead and try though, see what happens.
Your thinking is the exact reason why Australia is failing. Forcing small business owners, who hire most of the low-income workers, to pay more means they will decide with their wallet by either closing down businesses or stop hiring any new ones. They will maintain "profit" to "survive" by increasing prices. This raises the inflation rate; therefore, the RBA will react by raising the interest rate. (if they don't, the bond market will anyway) It is that simple.
Your bet is correct. There are plenty of long term migrants like myself who have the same view with most here. We hate the mass migration of incompatible people in the last decade. We can personally see the damage being done by them. (deliberately exploiting the welfare system, just like how they did it back in their home countries. They don't give a fook about fairness.)
That would be capital flight. Just like what has happened to China when the pool of viable investment opportunities has shrank considerably. Stock market is dead. Property collapsed. The recent silver bull run destroyed a lot of people. Crypto banned. Funnelling money into Hong Kong to use unauthorised brokers to buy US shares directly also taken down.
Australians will do the same when properties are no longer attractive and Aus stock market provide far less return than the US and other markets. Just look at the recent runs in the tech sector, also in Taiwan and KOSPI. Many are missing out. S&P 500 alone provided several times more return than AORD in the past 20 years. Why invest here?
Not true. I've seen it multiple times. There are elements of liberal view, but the core theme is pro-military and slightly conservative. Which, of course, means far right in 2026. Today's generation would not see it a centrist/slight conservative. O'Neil was far more pragmatic than most other characters in the film, especially vs Daniel. We don't need another Star Trek woke crap.
Same here in Queensland, Australia. The Supreme Court just allowed it, even if it is a sharpened blade, since the law does not currently distinguish the differences. The key risk mitigation is that "if a crime is committed using the knife, the person would be prosecuted". And that's good enough. (bad luck to the person who gets killed by it though)
@JonFlynnREstats China property literally collapsed and they seem to be fine. Same as Canada, New Zealand, and past collapses. The exact reasons are being used right now for many of you claiming prices cannot come down when Canada was at its peak in 2022.
And where do you think employment comes from? 80%+ of new net jobs created last 4 years were from non-market sector (mostly care industry) as per ABS. Private/market sectors barely created any. Every new policies out there is about reducing productivity via more taxes. Australia is literally 1.5 to 2 years behind Canada. Higher unemployment here will lead exactly to the same thing. Reduced migration because of lack of economic opportunities, which is pretty consistent internationally.
@DomitrosH@PlauDD@BernieSanders Agree. We got a lot of those here in Australia. People believe small business owners are super rich and need to pay their fair share when selling their business at 47% rate. Plus they are also made to increase minimum pay massively because they are rich enough to pay for it.
@Matt_Camenzuli Those socialists do not care. They think small business owners are super rich and should pay their fair share. We are slowly turning into Argentina and become a socialist disaster with hyper inflation.
