Last night something extraordinary happened
I posted this photograph and it went out to 1.2M people. But what was even more extraordinary was 129,000 people engaged with it (which is extraordinarily high for social media) - and it paid over $300.
To me it was an unremarkable post. But it hit a social nerve.
For Years Australians have Celebrated House Price Rises. It's been like a Sport, a Media Past Time in this country.
But I feel a sense of Unease about it now.
I think people are starting to wake up to the Fact that it's not actually the price that's rising. It's the value of your dollar falling.
It's been the biggest scam in banking for 40 years.
Prices will double every 7 years were told.
That means your money halves every 7 years and without a stroke of Irony the cost of housing is excluded from the Inflation Figures.
That's where all the Inflation is. And its all underwritten by banks. It's how our economy spins.
But now I see the Govt is cracking down on People living in Caravans.
That's right. Some Young People have decided that 5 Star Energy Rated 3 bedroom houses that cost 600,000 on 280sqm blocks that cost 350,000 is not a Good Deal.
So they're dropping say 100k on a nice Caravan and living at Mum and Dad's Property.
Oh no you don't!! We can't have that.
You need to go and get a Mortgage or Rent like an Unfree Peasant.
Well I say on that point, if the Government keeps pushing they're going to set off a storm they've never seen before.
Decent working people need somewhere to live.
If they're smart enough to find a way to safely and securely and financially wisely accommodate themselves on Private Land the Govt should butt out.
They tried that BS at Casey Council -- and those guys were Crushed.
This likewise will be defeated.
Don't even try guys.
This image is the future for some families.
