Re: The Housing Crisis

Every country's economy requires growth. To tie economic growth to migration is a mistake. Does Japan or Singapore require massive immigration for continued economic growth? When Japan's economy slows, have they opened their borders to third world migrants with fake r sub standard qualifications, to...

Re: The Housing Crisis

Lol no one sensible is saying Negative Gearing is the only cause of the housing crisis. It's a combination of a range of factors, including Negative Gearing, ongoing high immigration, capital gains tax changes two decades ago, NIMBY groups blocking development in many areas, problems with the plann...

Re: The Housing Crisis

Like some of us have been saying, and others have been burying their heads in the ideological sands of stupidity, here you go. More experts, more facts. But the usual suspects will bury their heads in the sand, make excuses, and insult people's intelligence or attack the source because the facts don...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure

Such a lack of self awareness on your part. I'm guessing the cult of Elon, the government funding grift merchant changed your mind on EVs. No, i don't give a shit about Elon Musk, I'm just all for technological advancement as a society and species, if it comes from people like Elon Musk great, if i...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure

But don’t wind & solar get subsidies as well? Suddenly subsidies are ok when it’s the right type of generation? Also, I don’t get why so many people here are against literally just legalising nuclear power? Yeah, it might not get built but I personally don’t believe the government should be dic...

Re: News & Discussion: Electricity Infrastructure

Given that private industry isn't even remotely interested unless there's heavy taxpayer subsidy, and that the history of major projects over the past 15 years is deplorable, you'd think it would be political suicide. That's not even considering the NIMBY vote. The best option would be to quietly d...

Re: SA Economy

Godfrey's somehow got themselves into the position of not selling what people were buying. Eg Dyson and robots. I assume that was Godfrey's wanting more control over price and distribution but major manufacturers deciding they didn't need Godfrey's at all. Mr Dishwasher I am sure started as dishwas...

Re: SA Economy

Iconic vacuum retailer Godfreys has collapsed, leaving workers from six SA stores without a job We bought our first vacuum cleaner from Godfreys in the early 1990s. It's kind of surprising that an entity could have existed for so long with over 140 shops in such a narrow market segment. Probably co...

[APP] Re: 98-100 North Terrace | 79m | 23 Levels | Little National Hotel

So there is starting to be some movement on this property. I live next door in the Oaks Horizon and folks from Hindmarsh came and took a couple of pictures from my balcony which is adjacent to this property. I'm departing OS shortly and I doubt I will return to my abode since the noise, debris and ...

That little black bit? You must spend an awful amount of time looking at that view to notice something so minor that you'd probably barely notice it without zooming in :o Pretty much haha.
