‘Our fellow Australians’: Three million Aussies ‘close to homelessness’

[@dartymcphee6738]

3 million Aussies are on the verge of homelessness but not 1 immigrant is homeless! Why did my grandparents & parents sacrifice their lives for this country so we could be treated like peasants whilst the non “Australians” get the red carpet VIP treatment all from the blood,sweat & tears of the current and prior generations of Aussies! Not 1 bit of this makes sense except it’s a battle between good & evil & can only end bad for the free loaders & the ones allowing, encouraging & endorsing the downfall of Australia!

After being categorized by the NSW Housing Commission as "most in need", my single mother and I (13 years old) moved into a flat in an 84 unit complex after waiting six years. With only an ironing board, a folding card table, and a tiny black and white TV for "furniture, the unit echoed, as there was nothing to break up the sound. We slept on the concrete rolled up in blankets as we had no beds or matrasses. My mother worked, she was not on any social security. We met our British neighbors who were quite wealthy and had only recently immigrated to Australia. They had waited two years for their flat. My mother was flabbergasted and I will never forget what she said. "The bloody government thinks more about foreigners than they do their own people." Nothing has changed.

@ hey, I don’t disagree, but in all honesty that is not what you stated, you said that Australia has a cost of government problem which is vague but I’m glad that you expanded on your comment and I agree with what you say , but let me expand a bit , one of the problems as well is that the lack of competition in Australia means that the profiteering by countries in Australia is totally out of control, the other problem in Australia is the abject corruption from the top down in Australia which is one reason the companies in Australia are allowed to do whatever they want to Australians , by the way, where I located to there is no personal income tax or capital gains tax, income tax came into Australia to help pay for the First World War , a temporary tax apparently 🙄 no Australia is finished and i could never live there again

Agreeing to impose every unelected UN agenda onto the Australian people since then! UN agenda 21, UN Rio agreement, in 2015 UN agenda 2030 that was ”LABORS” Malcolm Turncoat, and LNPs Julie Bishop, Julie now has a plum job at the UN? So lucky. Sadly for the Australian people 50 years of the now endemic TREASON in our Governments and councils, disgraceful, bowing to the unelected UN bureaucrats! Your treason must surely make you feel ashamed. Federal and State governments always pass on the UN Agenda requirements to regional and local Councils! They all report to the UN offices annually on our progress in implementing these UN limitations onto the Aussie people, the UN was infiltrated by the IEO (today known as the WEF) 60 years ago, and in 2019 the WEF and UN came out of hiding this, these two unelected puppet masters formed an alliance to bring in their New World Order, now called their “Great Reset” by the end of their UN agenda 2030! The dictionary defines TREASON as “Treason,” which is when a person acts against his/ her country. A treasonous person is called a TRAITOR! Outside the field of law, the word "traitor" can be used to describe a person who betrays a group to which he or she belongs!

Sorry D Trump is an expansionist, an imperialist and hell bent on colonisation as witnessed by wanting to take the Panama Canal and Greenland (for its natural resources) by force, by wanting Canada as the 51st state (with all their lovely resources). The EU was ruined by their own greed in thinking they would somehow obtain access to Ukrainian resources after they concluded their proxy war against Russia. Incredible political nous orchestrated by the USA, keep Germany down and Russia out. The West did not expect Russia (that gas station masquerading as a country) to win. If you think those resources fought for and lost will be enough to halt expansion, I really think you're mistaken. The native population of Greenland will be ever more decimated by alcoholism and drugs, it's a problem now for some. No medical health care either. There are sections of the Panama Canal suffering water loss from drought, both Nicaragua and Mexico are planning alternate water canals through their countries, an extremely bad decision by D Trump to even countenance such an idea unless of course he nukes quite a lot of the area. The support of Israel is primarily to ensure not only access to middle eastern oil wealth but the vast mineral and agricultural resources of the Asian plains. The resources of the world will never be enough to fix the USA debt, they just keep building it up with no due accountability. I don't rely on the incumbent, the president elect or any president of the USA. Take a good look at that country and your own the UK to realise what's been planned by and for the oligarchs who run these countries and want to bring in their New World Order.

Why is this acceptable for attending school? If 1/3 of families can't afford school uniforms then how are they paying for these laptops and iPads? This is on top of the $800 for books of which the government apparently offers a $400 rebate. Then add new uniforms and shoes, probably $300 for that as well. So much for a 'free public schooling' experience. It most definitely is not free. No wonder the birthing rate is lowering every year, the costs to raise children are frightening young people off the idea.

This has nothing to do with Albo. Like Britain, the rot started back in the 80's with "economic rationalisation", "trickle down economics" and privatisation. Imagine where Britain would be now if it hadn't virtually given away their North Sea oil for only a few billion dollars? Not to mention so many other assets and the jobs that went along with them. The same thing happened in Australia. Our governments sold the farm, like yours, right down to masses of public housing.

Who wants to work hard and do the hard yakka, make our houses look nice or even keep our house rubbish to a tidy level and just have common respect for each other in Australia....when there is no HOPE. When there is no way to save, when everything you do is chewed up in Bills and food prices. People are facing homelessness, because the big companies and big government out there don't give a shit about anyone. People put in an effort when they can see its gonna make a difference to them and to their families.....when there is nothing to gain...people do nothin and that's where Australia is headed. Why can't we hold competitions like talent shows to see who in Australia has a great invention or concept that can make a big input to our country....WHY DOESN'T THE GOVERNMENT PUSH THAT AGENDA INSTEAD OF CLIMATE CHANGE....Why can't we find the most talented people in Australia and push their products against everyone else and bring money into the country....instead of being a bunch of sell-outs.

[@peterschmidt1453]

@@alexandrews9493 Short memory you have there, Hawke stopped negative gearing early 80's, 2 years later he put it back in place. Houses for rent plummeted, new house builds for investment stopped too. In the system you want only owner occupiers pay for a home, nothing gets built for investment or rent because after the Fed. government steals 40% of the rent in income tax, local government rates and taxes, insurance, water rates, land tax and then the bank charges 80% of the rent for mortgage payments no sane person would want to go bankrupt trying to run an investment property.

Australia is one of few countries that still has negative gearing. The greatest benefit received is from those that have high incomes and enough tax to offset.

[@PlumbBob-FGX]

I hear what you are saying. The reality for some, is that if remove the capital gains tax rules as they stand for the existing people with a property, is that instead of being somewhat self funded, they will end up on the pension sooner. Do I think there should be changes, absolutely, but you need to grandfather the existing arrangements that people are already on. Whatever comes next needs to be carefully thought through, as there will be unforseen consequences.

But if you're already in the city apply for 100 jobs a day. By week 2 you will get phone calls one after the other for interviews. Pick which job is best and go to work!!!! None of this go in one day have the next day off rubbish and work constantly no bludging.

A couple of years ago, I became homeless. This happened while I had a mortgage, a corporate job, and a Master's degree. The precipitating trigger was being arrested by QPS for things that occurred 23 years ago. At the time of my offending, I was a mentally ill drug addict. Over the course of decades, I rehabilitated myself (with professional support) & personally apologized to those impacted by my behaviour. A couple of years prior to my arrest, I was a victim of life-threatening DV. QPS knew about the domestic violence & targeted me regardless. Post arrest, I had nobody to turn to. My family is poor & dysfunctional. I felt so alone & almost relapsed. The criminal justice system ( CJS) , mental illness, and domestic violence are leading causes of homelessness. The CJS needs urgent reform. Prisoners are FULL of people who need mental health care & social support. An inquiry into police / DPP is needed. I made it through to conviction & I'm still sober. I am unbreakable.
