Re: SA Economy
South Australia has had negative interstate migration since the 1970s, as has New South Wales. It's been an ongoing issue for both states for a very long time. I'm not sure that's entirely true. I thought S.A's net interstate migration losses only became entrenched from 90/91 onwards (State Bank co...

Re: The Federal Politics Thread
[Howard also helped create the housing crisis through the removal of the capital gains tax on housing, making it much more lucrative for wealthy investors to buy up property in bulk (no surprise that most Federal MPs from all parties own multiple properties). That is partially true, here is an exce...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure
I guess the question from myself and most South Australians who have limited knowledge on how the whole electricity generation/supply/retail system works, is when are we going to actually see our power bills reduce? We have been sold this narrative that renewable were supposed to lead to cheaper pr...

Re: SA Economy
That's true as abc the troll says above, S.A still has the slowest population growth rate of the 5 mainland states. The reason we ranked first is because the growth rate of 1.67% is way above our decade average of around 0.9%. Good to see we are getting a larger share of migrants. How much of that ...

Re: SA Economy
If SA can maintain between 1.5 and 2% growth for a while, I think we can grab a bigger slice of infrastructure funding from the Commonwealth. As often one of the main excuses we hear why we don't get the funding, is population. East coast has a larger population that's growing faster so they need i...

Re: The SA Politics Thread
The Premier of South Australia doesn't even get paid that much from what i've read. Having said that, the top public servants get paid more than that anyways. Weird, yes.

Re: News & Developments: Bowden TOD
Therein lies the problem of apartments in Australia... they are perceived as being sub-par as compared to landed houses. And maybe that is at least partially justified with some of the quality issues seen interstate, which has seen entire buildings deemed unlivable. Agree the offering overseas is s...

[APP] Re: 22 Colley Terrace, Glenelg | 38m | 11 Levels | Apartments
Yep, agree with the sentiment here. Such a waste of a prime site. I've said it before i'm surprised there aren't more apartments built at Glenelg as they always sell like hot cakes. I imagine the issue is sites don't become available that often.

Re: The Housing Crisis
I really do find this continual price rise over the past 20+ years as perplexing. I mean, I do understand the factors at play........ but I would always think that house prices would plateau at the point where the general population can no longer afford to pay more, but this simply hasn't been the c...
