the Tech still hasn't figured out how to turn trillion-dollar investments into billion-dollar revenues. Who is the customer? What is the product?

Why hasn't the European Union implemented an Australian style superannuation garuntee?

House prices growth is stead at 1% annual isrd for two quarters, while wages are growing at 4%. How fast do you need prices to fall? What we need is more completion in the finance sector.

You're looking for a more bipartisan approach to issues like the environment?

I know a few young doctors and a few that missed out because of the selection process. Why are there so few place for medical students, why do they turn down so many qualified Australian applicants?

What makes you believe that the University System is not viable if they have a balances ratio?

Isn't this what the Senate is for? Where the greens hold 14.5% of seats, despite a first preference of only 11.66%

I would be interested in if this tax structure could increasingly replace other less efficient taxes.

As the Superannuation system grows bring in a progressive tax structure on savings rather than on earnings.

Dont the changes limit universities' proportionally to their domestic cohort. Obviously lots of well qualified Australian students don't get the opportunity to study medicine. Do the proposed skilled migration changes impact doctors. I thought there was a constant flow here, mostly UK trained.

In Brisbane we would expect that Teals would find fertile ground in the urban centres in the southern Gold Coast, and northern Sunshine Coast

I not convinced it's just the tax settings, I wonder if it is a combination of collusive price setting between rental management companies, and long term suppressed real wages growth.

I'd argue that opposite. The thing that commercial games aren't offering is definitive endings. Games, campaigns and their settings go on and on well past getting stale.

An anti-cap game would give characters proper beginnings, middles, and ends.

After attending a very small and very, very large university, larger universities felt better for students, while smaller universities have advantages for the academics.

If we are to have a smaller number of larger universities, they are going to need to treat their staff with more respect.

It's about negotiating policy outcomes, not letting personalities put themselves first.

That's just previous experience

Were any Labor policies announced after the campaign launch? Feels a bit like both-sides-ism. What is the complaint? Media reporting is so constrained that few voters have even heard of Labors' centre piece industry policy, a future made in Australia.

The best thing we can do for Vietnam, which is a member of our CPTTP trade pact is to resell their products at a 10% markup. And move towards the 4 freedoms with or Comprehensive Progressive Partners.

You need to ask Dutton if he is going to trade away the PBS, and give everyone mad cow disease.

There is definitely a segment of the online discourse that hates Democracy, Socialism, Progressives, Unions, Workers, Australians and take that out on Labor

Moving the scope of the problem away from our domestic consumption to how we are a part of global supply changes was a huge victory. And the budgets investment in Green Steel really doubles down.

Humans cause global warming, which is why we need a future made in Australia.

I know, I was appalled when they voted against the Environment Protection Authority and Help to Buy.
March 29, 2025 at 10:44 PM
So I think that the Greens MP for Brisbane might lose his seat because the cut through lines that he voted to block the Environment Protection Authority and Help to Buy Schemes

Isn't this what everyone rusted on Labor voters is expecting of every Teal and Green Politician?

They are a upper class conservative management type that doesn't want the baggage of the Coalitions branding?

Anyone that threatens the hegemons resource extraction gets toppled and replaced. The mistake is to try. We fight back by setting aside ego, and building a stronger partnership on nations.

I don't know, the Gillard years were pretty right wing compared with Albo.
