Gone are the days when a ‘good job’ gets you a house – and now we have the data to prove it https://www.theguardian.com/business/grogonomics/2025/mar/12/gone-are-the-days-when-a-good-job-gets-you-a-house-and-now-we-have-the-data-to-prove-it?
Every economic modeling shows that it is now impossible to save enough to purchase a house. Clearly something needs to be done to address the broken housing system. And although we are months away from a federal election, neither of the major parties have announced anything remotely effective to address the issue of #Housingaffordability
#GregJericho does an effective job at showing the impossibility of saving enough for a deposit. Seems like the only peeps who can afford to purchase a house these days are poliies, real estate investors (a very successful one being #Dutton also a pollie) and the top 10% of Australian society. Clearly should be an election issue but from our pollies… crickets….
A big win in court for Australia's First Nations.

Would Peter Dutton lie to taxpayers?
Only if his lips were moving.
When #DodgyDutton says he wants to slash #WorkFromHome he's not talking about himself.

seriously wtf some people with money seem inordinately proud of their ignorance — especially about things that don’t affect them personally (unless they have internalised some hateful cow-plop from other treacle-beaks)
<<On top of that, since 1984 Australia has had a Sex Discrimination Act, the latest iteration of which makes it an offence to discriminate against a person on the grounds of gender identity or intersex status, making it clear that these are protected attributes under the law.>>
The road from "I grew up in public housing" to "I've got a personal driver, so fuck youse" can be alarmingly short at times.
'This guy is a problem. He is an objective problem, for the world, for the region, for my country.'
'Donald, as we know, is not, a leading intellectual force.'
