- Comment on 'Proud to be a houso': Anthony Albanese condemns Hanson's remarks on late mother 2 weeks ago:
That’s a good point, I think the key detail here is that for everyone born in the late 80s onwards will have a very different picture of social housing to those born before the changes
- Comment on 'Proud to be a houso': Anthony Albanese condemns Hanson's remarks on late mother 2 weeks ago:
Maybe that’s how public housing was, but in WA at least you’re currently illegible if you have more than ~40k in assets OR household income above $551 a week (that’s half minimum wage)

A lot of us are chronically ill, shouldn’t be working and get sweet fuck all for it. Medications not covered by PBS and cost thousands. Still taxed to the shit so the lucky bludgers can live an easy relaxed life with everything provided courtesy us
- Comment on 'Proud to be a houso': Anthony Albanese condemns Hanson's remarks on late mother 2 weeks ago:
You can afford rent in Sydney now (just) working minimum wage, you could afford rent then. 18 years is easy to excuse but what about all the other years. Especially from '75 onward to '00 when rent pulled away from wages

She’s not wrong though, 65 years in the same public house? Did they never get a job?

Labor just massively cut NDIS. They’re not in a position to call out other parties for the same policy…

Majority of Americans reject Trump too but you don’t see Iran bombing America for it
- Comment on Albanese government rejects all UN recommendations on improving LGBTQIA+ rights 2 months ago:
Now we’re in opinion territory. Pull a move like this and the upcoming one nation federal government will absolutely fuck the entire country on issues like abortion
- Comment on Albanese government rejects all UN recommendations on improving LGBTQIA+ rights 2 months ago:
See the other comment regarding federal overrides of state responsibility

- Comment on Albanese government rejects all UN recommendations on improving LGBTQIA+ rights 2 months ago:
You’re stretching on what is federal vs state here and you know it. See other comment regarding federal overrides. This isn’t a good faith argument
- Comment on Albanese government rejects all UN recommendations on improving LGBTQIA+ rights 2 months ago:
we should undermine the democratic process and state government powers because I don’t like it when the state government doesn’t lean the way I personally want
A very dangerous road to walk
I never thought I’d be defending the coalition but imagine if the coalition federal government (who historically avoid/prevent federal overrides) did this for issues like abortion
- Comment on Albanese government rejects all UN recommendations on improving LGBTQIA+ rights 2 months ago:
Of course the federal government would reject the recommendations when they’re almost entirely state government responsibilities

There is literally no tax in NZ on selling shares in private companies.

Increasing CGT to one of the most expensive in the world doesn’t need a citation… Engage in some basic thought.
You create a business, take on massive risks, fund it yourself even, then when you go to sell you’re looking at essentially 100% capital gain
That’s not extremely attractive. Why not create the business in Nev Zealand where that would incur 0% tax, because they don’t have CGT?
- Comment on Polling suggests one nation preferred over labor, negative perceptions and low awareness of budget blamed. 3 months ago:
It is bad, the changes discourage investment in creating new businesses in Australia. It’s going to screw the country in the long term
- Comment on Polling suggests one nation preferred over labor, negative perceptions and low awareness of budget blamed. 3 months ago:
One Nation? No thanks
- Comment on Polling suggests one nation preferred over labor, negative perceptions and low awareness of budget blamed. 3 months ago:
It’s as if Labor designed a budget to turbocharge more anti-establishment sentiment and pump up One Nation’s tyres.

- Comment on 'No place in Australia': Burke adds 'neo-Nazis' to proscribed hate group list 4 months ago:
How can you possibly ban a “group” under any name they “reform” under? Is this a preemptive ban on any groups that could be anti Israel?

- Comment on Are users who openly parrot literal Nazi talking points allowed here? 6 months ago:
Lemmy.ml is super commie and Nazis are anti commie, I don’t understand how this is a coherent line of thinking
- Comment on Are users who openly parrot literal Nazi talking points allowed here? 6 months ago:
The “Nazi talking points” that aren’t mentioned could be a bait, and be something as simple as anti communism or economic reforms that stimulate production through public works (e.g. the autobahn)
They may not be the things the Nazis were hated for…

Who demanded the govt make new laws? I don’t know a single person who demanded such a thing, nor anyone who actually supports them after reading how incredibly vague and severe the legislation is
