I saved this from 5 months ago: aussie.zone/post/15598435/13409792

It’s not just the Israel/Palestine stance (which I don’t want to get into because I’ll get downvoted to heck) but a big part is housing, they were seen (rightly or wrongly) as delaying housing, as someone who voted for the MMC to see him doing this killed me

There was other things but a big one that stands out to me was this:

The Reserve Bank should lower interest rates tomorrow and if they don’t, the Treasurer should use his existing powers to bring down interest rates

…org.au/…/greens-wont-support-rba-reforms-until-l…

That is absolutely fucking insane, it might just be the most insane economics policy I’d ever seen, this is Donald Trump tier idiocy, it’s a similar line to wanting to get rid of the Fed Chair in America but even he backed off after realising it would screw things up badly

The central bank is independent, if the government starts setting the rates then what is the point of the whole central bank?

There was loads of other things they did

But anyway

Looking at NSW and Victoria council election results, I expect the Greens will gain votes and maybe even a seat or two, I doubt there will be drastic gains or losses.
