I find the car situation here really frustrating, why is it I can buy a $5m boat and pay zero stamp duty and no "luxury tax" vs. a landcruiser that gets slugged to the hilt by the distributors and govt, everyone has their face in the trough when it comes to cars... are boats less of a luxury...

not saying I have the answers, to be honest I think it's too late,just go build a new city somewhere else. Geraldton, there you go. If they want density, god help us, there is IMO plenty of unused space around, south of South Beach feels like a holiday camping area. don't get me started on...

tried driving down stirling hwy in claremont at 8.30am? they are talking (!) about sinking the railway line and running a road above it, or sinking stirling hwy etc, all huge costs and wont happen for decades. there is nowhere for the traffic to go. meanwhile they keep plonking in new apartments...

this continual rolling out of the ol' "more high density housing" routine is getting a bit old. the inner suburbs can't handle the traffic congestion as it is. the answer is more cities, look at WA... kind of a big place huh?
