OK. Heading over now. :D I'm T.C. over next door. To keep Topcropper I had to say what my email was 11 years ago when I first joined? Yeah, good luck with that! See ya's.

But it's short term isn't it. They will soon get sick of being on Nauru or Manus and take the free airfare back to where they came. Great initiative. Implemented by labor wasn't it? See ya's.

He's not popular with lefties. Hugely popular with Lib voters and that's all that matters isn't it when talking about a new leader? See ya's.

As others have said, he has the voice and persona of a spoilt upper class silverspoon brat. Could be a nice bloke but I don't know? Scott Morrison is the man. He has stopped the boats and the queue jumpers, and thus has saved our budget billions from welfare. Looking forward to him as leader...

House prices from 1990 to about 1997 were flat. Just about everywhere. So it didn't start in 1990. See ya's.

I reckon I know everyone within 20 square kilometres. Plus most of their dogs and horses. See ya's.

There's always been a bit of jealousy from the better educated types when tradies and other less educated like miners make it big. This thread seems like that to me? Who cares if miners were making 150 k a year? Or plumbers? A lot still are and good on em I say. And why on earth is it a...

Dunno how you'll go, tough market but good luck with it. What about this for an idea though? Free to whoever wants it as I couldn't be bothered. Told the wife the other day to get some of those rubber gas fittings that go on the male ends of the gas line that goes into the gas...

Must be in the middle of nowhere surely? $2,000! Yet large developers are chasing it? LOL. Can't wait to hear more about this one. See ya's.

Anyone with a house and good job in Australia would be in the top 1% wouldn't they if we are talking on a global scale? See ya's.

I'm not really sure but I'd imagine there would be cash work going on just like in other industrys. I'm pretty sure all the big operations would be above board, as if you are big, you are a target. The fact is that backpackers are essential for a lot of rural towns and industries. Any local...

You've got a point? However young Aussies won't do the work backpackers do. The locals won't, and neither will people travel from the cities. It's just a fact. They would rather get the dole than pick fruit and veges. And the effective tax rate for anyone earning less than $18,000 is zero...

He really lost his looks when his teeth all fell out didn't he? See yas.

I agree. It is tough and I think it's a bad move. I'll predict the extra money it generates will be outweighed by the loss of economic activity generated by backpackers when they decide to go elsewhere. See ya's.

There are some things that it's also amazing what's not happened. Like the concord supersonic jetliner? People could fly at twice the speed of sound 40 years ago from London to New York. Not possible today. What about space flight? Soon every man who walked on the moon will be dead of old age...

How was he gunna do that? I'd assume he had no money to put in to help? Unless he had a stash put away from his drug dealing days? Do they have phones in gaol? I've got no idea? Never been in gaol myself. Was he going to direct the entire process from behind bars? Tell some minder to pass on...

Yeah, I was scratching my head over that one.:confused: See ya's.

Yep, you might have me there. See ya's.

So how is that different if I want to upgrade my farm or business? Hey, I'm just jealous I don't live in and own a ten million dollar pad in Sydney that I've owned for ages. In other words, I'm not in on it, and am not able to. See ya's.

Absolutely. And on a similar note, why the hell are PPOR exempt from capital gains tax? It's a massive rort. I'd be in on it too I suppose if I lived in Sydney or Melbourne and was well off. Won't change though. Can someone give a logical reason why a PPOR would be capital gains tax...
