Stamp Duty is a State tax and to States this is revenue as they are currency users

The Federal Government is the issuer of the currency and could choose reimburse the States and define what the funds must spend it on, say new state owned public housing?

They can do this without taxing or borrowing

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

The Federal Government is the issuer of the $AUD, what progress did you make?

All the real people I know have yet to see any real progress

Mind you the Banks, Energy, Water, Mining and the disproportionately wealthy are doing well

In 1989, the Hawke @australianlabor.bsky.social Government reintroduced fees for university study in Australia.

You burdened students & now you make a token gesture & expect gratitude

Just get rid of them altogether

When is someone in the House of Representatives or the Senate going to stand up & state:

"As issuer of the currency the Federal Government can purchase these services without borrowing or debt"

Will it be you @davidpocock.bsky.social

A very pro digital micro-economic speech, no meaningful mention of macro, the space he now inhabits

No mention of full-employment, buffer stock, sectoral balances or bank regulation

No mention of maintaining bank branches or cash

Pro the scams that are digital & super

Below is a link to the PDF prelude to the full book I have been working on, which I hope to release sometime later this year.

Two live projects are still unfolding, which will be included. The full release will go deeper, name names and show how harm is done.

Make advertising, all advertising, a non-tax deductible expense

Without exception they are paid for lies, misinformation & exaggeration

& tax 50% of the winnings of all gambling wins, will stop money laundering, track problem gamblers & would be a significant disincentive

THE RBA CASH RATE DOES NOT DETERMINE MORTGAGE RATES - IT'S A GRIFT

Attended Macquarie Bank’s AGM. Asked ex-RBA Glenn Stevens if banks create money via lending — he denied it.

I’ve written a plain-English explainer on why that’s wrong. PDF link here:

Yet to see a journalist ask the critical questions:

Is the budget really broken?

Why does a currency issuing Fed Govt need to raise taxes or implement austerity?

Why cant the Fed Govt which is not capital constrained, not build 1.2m homes?

If a country issues its own currency, function & the meaning of words change
July 6, 2025 at 11:16 PM
Federal economic honesty would be refreshing

Until @jimchalmers.bsky.social, the economic media & social commentariat acknowledge the currency issuing Federal Government is not capital constrained, any discussion on reform will be a self reinforcing feedback loop & talk fest

It is a resource crisis we should fear, finance is merely a means of organising resources

We should only fear our collective ignorance & the self-serving grifters we allow to maintain the financial illusion

2019 – 33.34% Shorten looses
2022 – 32.58% Albo wins
2025 – 34.7% Albo wins in a landslide

A loss, win & a landslide is separated by 2%

THERE’S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM

***NSW & VIC***

NO MATTER WHO YOU SUPPORT

YOU NEED Dr ANDY SCHMULOW & ROBERT BARWICK IN THE SENATE

In the House, vote with your heart❤️

In the Senate vote with your head 🦉

NSW = @drschmu.bsky.social
VIC = Robert Barwick

The first sentence is sort of okay, but the rest is garbage

The Federal Government is not capital constrained, it issues the $AUD

It does not need gas taxes to pay for services & infrastructure

Doesn't need any taxes or to sell bonds

If it's doable it's affordable

WHAT PEOPLE BELIEVE HAPPENS:

1. Taxpayer pays tax
2. Currency Issuing Government spends tax

WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENS:

1. Currency Issuing Government spends currency
2. Taxpayers use currency to pay tax

GET IT?

You mob are no different to the Liberal/National coalition

You all have been incrementally selling Australians out for at least five decades

Thinking Australians would be INSANE to vote Red or Blue

Target, fund, aspire are weasel words

Form a state owned building authority & just build now

In the interim purchase suitable homes being foreclosed by banks & hire accommodation as it was done during the pandemic

Five decades ago Australians could build, own or rent a family home on one income

The Red & Blue teams have run down and/or sold our housing stock, let the big private banks loose, sold our public bank & are in the pocket of the big end of town

Australians would be INSANE to vote for either of you
April 16, 2025 at 3:36 AM
To be honest I don't wish to here more of the platitudes & the proposed aspirational repair strategies to the destruction both have reeked on this country

The ABC needs to give some airplay to the margins of politics where real innovation & change is born

A third don't support Red or Blue
April 16, 2025 at 12:26 AM
Mate, they did once

Have you ever tried to pay rent, mortgage & food with an 'Aspiration'

Today @australianlabor.bsky.social is self serving & support the big end of town

There is little difference between the Red team & the Blue team
April 15, 2025 at 11:12 PM
YES WE HAVE A CHOICE

Voters have chosen Red, then Blue, then Red, then Blue & things just keep getting worse

The question is, are we INSANE?
