       #auspol #housing One of the things that astound/annoy/frustrate/perturb me is when a political apparatchik asks me:"what do I think of their leader/policy?".AND I reply: "They/It are not suitable" (or words to that effect).....Their response is inevitably, to walk off in a huff and ignore my feedback..I feel that this is the major thing wrong with modern politics. People don't want to listen or take feedback..Both the LNP and ALP housing policies are terrible. They will only drive up house prices. .We do not need to stoke demand in a supply limited, overheated market..We need to cool demand and massively increase supply..Well the country does, if we are serious about housing the homeless..But of course property speculators don't want this, they want prices to go up..So here is the rub, almost every politician owns property and is speculating. And we are asking them to make a decision, that will negatively impact them personally, for the good of the nation..Yeah... Good luck with that....Roll on the day when we have one million homeless and two million vacant properties that no-one can afford....Humans...
