Govt sets policy to manipulate population. Neg gearing is no different. It allows tougher monetary control through ....... % rates. But it also allows growth.
Bad? Must say that overall & keeping it simple, increasing of the capital & wealth of the country is the govts secondary roll (just behind protection) and is incredibly important for populace well being.
If negative gearing did not meet this end, then by now there would be mega data from the ABS to contradict its benifit. Statistics can be manipulated but after all this time & scrutiny, I'm sure its been analysed by smarter people than me & its still here.
And negative gearing doesn't just apply to RE, it can be used for any investment. So negative gearing into shares would also be affected. Negative share gearing is actually an interesting number crunch as shares with good yield & franking credits, make interesting calculations.
But I do still love my RE
