@David_McMahon75 I see, then Australia will become a communist state. It could go as far as Venezuela where everyone is poor and people will be crossing borders as illegal to get a better life. Is that really what we want? Everyone to be poor? And government officials at the top living the dream?
The Australian consumer is dead and buried.
Crashing real disposable incomes are meeting a cost of living crisis.
Interest rate increases, record leverage, increased taxes, increasing unemployment, inflation.
The ‘misery index’ is spiking.
@AlboMP In other words: it’s hard to buy a house, so to help you, we will make it even harder. And why not penalize everyone while we are at it. So that at least everyone can’t start a business, keep a job and get a house. Well done!

@ChrisWickNews Looks like they want to create a civil war in most western countries. And probably destroy the currencies all at once. A real mess is coming by the look of it.
Is it just me… or are governments around the world starting to act like they’re testing the limits of public patience?
Because from the outside, it almost looks like they’re pushing things further… and watching to see what people will accept next.
At what point does pressure turn into pushback?
Genuine question — where do you think this is heading?
@GrahamY Definitely! Lose control of all our wealth and give it to the big funds and stop people from using it before 60, next 65, next 70... I am sure super is next. 15% is too low, we need a “fair share” like 30% or more. Why not 99% while we are at it. There are not limits.
An Australian family in Perth just sat down and did the maths the government hoped you’d never do.
Cost to buy & own a home over 34 years: $2,016,850
Taxes paid to the government over the same period: $2,717,865
You paid more in tax than for your own house. Let that sink in.
Breakdown:
• $2.2M in income taxes, GST, duties & excises
• $105k in council rates
• $94k in vehicle taxes across 7 cars
• $300k in tax on your super (the money meant for retirement)
And what’s the big relief in the 2025 Budget? A $268 tax cut.
That’s $5.15 a week — less than a pie and a beer.
You’re not bad with money. You’re being taxed into the ground.
I love this country, but I’m bloody tired of everyday Aussies working their whole lives just to hand over more to the government than they spend on their home — while those collecting it face zero consequences.
The numbers don’t lie.
Time to prepare, protect and future-proof your family. The fighting spirit is needed now more than ever.

What do you think? 🇦🇺
Under the proposed CGT changes, the effective tax rate on a direct share portfolio could rise from 44% to 70% because inflation adjusted losses can’t offset gains unless shares fall in nominal dollar terms.
That means portfolios with a few big winners and lots of average performers (which is how most real world portfolios behave), get hit hardest.
The result is that direct share investing becomes much less attractive than ETFs and pooled investment structures for most Australians, far more so than Treasury’s modelling appears to assume. https://t.co/Efmea0I5oq

Here is my advice for avoiding 47% CGT on shares.
Step 1 - Take all your money, put it in the bank, and collect 5% interest.
Step 2 - Get a doctor to diagnose you as autistic, and register for the NDIS.
Step 3 - Buy a PlayStation 5, sit on the couch, and punch cones.
🚨Silver drops because inflation is rising.
Which is funny, because inflation is literally one of the reasons people buy silver in the first place. 🤡🥈
