The govt just slashed the 50% CGT discount for everyday Aussies, meaning you’ll pay more tax on shares, investments, and properties you’ve worked and risked your money to acquire.
At the exact same time, in Budget Paper 1, they’re expanding VCLP tax breaks, lifting the asset cap from $250m to $480m so massive foreign pension funds and overseas VC firms can make tax-free capital gains in Australian.
Ordinary Australians = more tax.
Foreign billion-dollar funds = tax-free profits.
Meanwhile they’re flooding the country with third world migrants to demographically replace Australians
This is Replacement agenda 101. I think it's safe to say now we are at War with this government?
The single biggest winner from the budget: the tax-free owner-occupied home, which is where people will put their money. After the budget doubles the capital gains tax on productive businesses/assets from circa 23.5% to 46-47%, investors will understandably pull money from businesses, shares, commercial property and rental housing and plough it into their tax-free owner-occupied home. It's a great way to push up the prices of these houses. On the other hand, cutting negative gearing while also doubling CGT makes investing in rental properties extremely unattractive. It hammers the capital gain upside on any asset: shares, commercial property, the small or medium sized business you built, venture capital and private equity. It will give Australia the most unattractive capital gains tax in the WORLD (see table below)! So the government's policies will (1) push up owner-occupied house prices, (2) push up rents, and (3) reduce the capital available for investing in any small, medium or large sized business that is driving employment, innovation, growth and productivity/prosperity. Investors will go to other countries where they pay half the capital gains tax, or less. Since these pollies have never worked a day of their lives in the private sector, it is no surprise that when they decide to completely and unilaterally rewrite the entire tax system for all investors and businesses -- after promising before the last election more than 50 times NOT to change the capital gains tax and negative gearing rules -- that they would blow the entire Aussie economy up... Your best bet will be to buy a house, live in it, and hope they keep dropping 500,000 new people into the country every year to pump-up prices...
Australia’s fuel crisis summed up by @RobbieBarwick
Australia 🇦🇺 is the:
‘Biggest per capita diesel consumers in the world, we are the most reliant on diesel in the world’
Yet, as the charts in the video show, we don’t keep a good stockpile of it 🤦🏻♀️
Australia is a poster child of political shambles...
48.5c in the dollar, pay for your own healthcare, your own retirement, your own education, 10% GST, 30% fuel tax.....
Houses are the most expensive in the world, we are a net exporter of coal, uranium, LNG and have expensive electricity
Remind me what we get for our 47-48c in the dollar?

Mooloolaba Wharf - Zero Diesel Fuel available for 70 fishing boats.
Don’t let them tell you there isn’t a fuel problem. There is.
The much larger issues though, which will take a long time to fix, are the supply chain problems coming down the line.
One of the richest resource nations on Earth- sitting on massive oil, gas, coal, and uranium reserves—is now openly debating FUEL RATIONING like some third-world basket case.
This is total, unforgivable government failure. Decades of globalist green pandering, shutting down refineries, blocking domestic energy development, and selling out to net-zero fantasies have left us with pathetic 30-36 day stockpiles and begging for imports through a war-torn Strait of Hormuz.
Albanese, Bowen, and their Labor cronies own this crisis. Their ideological idiocy has made Australia dangerously vulnerable—panic buying, empty pumps, $3/L diesel, farmers screaming about dead crops, and food prices set to skyrocket 50%.
These traitors should be jailed for gross negligence and endangering national security. That’ll never happen in this corrupt system, so at minimum, deport them - ship them off to whatever woke utopia they worship.
Australia needs extreme, immediate change: unleash fracking, reopen refineries, build real reserves, and purge the green zealots from power.
Wake up, Aussies—this isn’t a drill. It’s betrayal.
Ladies and gentlemens, brace yourselves history is repeating with a vengeance, and the sequel looks even more explosive.
I present to you the new and improved synthetic mortgage-backed CDOs that detonated the 2008 financial crisis… rebranded for 2026 as private credit funds.
BlackRock has just made history
For the first time ever, they’ve slammed the gates shut on their high risk $26 billion private credit flagship (HLEND), capping redemptions at a brutal 5% after investors tried to yank out 9.3% ($1.2 billion) in a single quarter. Only $620 million gets paid out good luck to the rest still trapped inside.
And that’s just the appetizer.
Blackstone’s monster BCRED the largest non-traded private credit vehicle on the planet at $82 billion….faced a record 7.9% redemption tsunami ($3.8 billion sought).
They flexed to meet it all (upsizing the limit and injecting firm/employee cash), but net outflows still hit $1.7 billion after inflows.
These two titans alone represent over $108 billion in combined outflow pressure right now.
The entire $2 trillion global private credit empire is teetering on the edge and we haven’t even seen a real equities bloodbath yet.
Imagine what happens when panic truly sets in, when the baby gets thrown out with the bathwater, and forced sales of illiquid loans start cascading through the system.
This isn’t just a liquidity hiccup. It’s the echoes of 2008 on steroids: opaque lending, retail investors piling in for yield, liquidity mismatches waiting to explode, and now the first real gates slamming shut.
The contagion could make the subprime meltdown look bullish in comparison.
Buckle up…..this shadow banking giant is waking up, and when it stumbles, the fallout won’t be contained to a few funds.
Stay vigilant and remain diligent.
Yours truly,
The Great Martis✨
