@Mon4Kooyong Teals are the ppl that got all inspired by - "aim for moon, if you miss, land in the stars" Underachievers at heart/lack the abilities/ambition for anything of real consequence - except undermining those who can/have ALP
@elonmusk BANKS MULTIPLY THAT $450B 20 TIMES WHEN IT REACHES THEIR RESERVES. THAT FAKE MONEY IS LOANED AT INTEREST. THIS IS IGNORED VS GOV DEBT BUT THAT IS WHAT ACTUALLY AFFECTS PPL'S LIVES. ECONOMICS IS PSEUDO-SCIENCE - BUT GOVS CREATE EVERY POLICY FROM THAT MESS OF DEBUNKED IDEAS
@netz_melb@AlboMP@andrewjgiles Banks/fractional reserve lending/1st home buyer grants and other programs that keep the ponzi afloat. Know your enemy. Labour is as bad as LNP in keeping Aus housing market in a bubble. Rent is just interest collection for banks. Ppl can't buy because spend it all on rent. Learn
@MickamiousG@AlboMP@andrewjgiles Just like when the banks killed germany in 1920's - you're barking up the wrong tree. it's fractional reserve lending/market bubbles/insane gov policy protecting the housing ponzi scheme. only aus & switzerland has had no correction - because gov keeps it running artificially
@AlboMP@andrewjgiles If you let the market correct and stopped the ponzi-scheme that makes housing unaffordable ppl could afford their own home. But then your portfolio would tank. You benefited from social housing and cheap property and now you sell out the working class therfor u r worse than scomo
@AdamBandt Doesn't work because doesn't end the cancer of banking. Debt Jubilee is answer - cancel private debt. This isn't a consideration for dogmatic adherents to Neo-classical economics - Debunked by @ProfSteveKeen
@AdamBandt The New Liberals provided the solution via @ProfSteveKeen - A Debt Jubilee - CANCEL PRIVATE DEBT. Ends the Housing bubble banker-wealth-drain waste & revitalising the economy by directing the immense earning power of those who produce/create towards strengthen/develop the country
@robisraelart No he just can't read good. You can't tell the difference/you are lying - either way, how do you actually think you are a person worth listening to? Another "is it hubris or dullard" boomer
@HansMahncke The CIA literally assasinated the POTUS and NBC does cover-up peices on it, support a President who refuses to offer Secret service protection to that Presiden'ts Nephew, who's father was assasinated while running for office and do not cover his campaign that has 20%+ of vote
@AlboMP Heart's in the right place but until he un-learns Neo-classical economics we are F'd. A terrible model. Applied like science. Debunked by @ProfSteveKeen. Signs of it's failure in everything from: working people not having a home to Earth being consumed as if it was infinite
@cognazor Pretty much. I use the all the time, always the same retired boomer that can take or leave the money so rates are crazy high. Paying giga percentage kills me too
Divide them by wealth and they'll eat eachother. Howard and the creeps couldn't beat us so made the poors poorer and fed a prison guard class. Thanks Boomers, you had Paul Keating, you voted him out and you collect his super you RACQ motel discount c%(&s

@nswpolice Cool flex bro 🤦♂️
"Australian governments spend about $4.7 billion a year on the war on drugs."
Prison traumatizes->releases more violent ppl
We pick up the tab for that cost too
$100s of billions
Most wasteful/ineffective policy in Aus history
Your little pile is cute tho
to the newscorp ghoul(s) trying to trawl my timeline for "bludger" content: here they are. people like sarina russo and megan wynne (APM) have netted hundreds of millions of dollars of public money to "deliver" jobs for roughly ~2% of their caseload (according to Dep't estimates)
