And before that use a carrot to incentivise developers to make the majority of their income on the supply side so this stick wouldn't have them yelling like the times before.

There isn't so much of the story elements, especially if you've tried Braid, but The Witness has endless intrigue and abstract puzzles. https://store.steampowered.com/app/210970/The_Witness/

Yeah, so makes sense that they had to grandfather it. I'm not into fucking old people either 😜

As Kohler points out in his introduction, the demand for housing started taking off in earnest after the Howard Government’s reduction of the capital gains tax (CGT) by 50% in 1999.

Very much keen to see this divergence stop, that would be a big difference. Bigger if wages can catch up.

It's a very slow roll, but it is a roll, most of the good policies probably won't pay off for years. Turning property developers to make their money on supply instead of hording houses as assets should help eventually. And future made in Australia poised ready to fill the demand as fossil fuels slowly die out. Doubt there is much short term though with all this effort put into fuel supplies and only treading water as is.

Exactly, I very much meant perception and their own. Not weather it's founded in outcomes or not. I think outcomes argue better that any reasoning about perception.

Everyone votes and everyone votes in their perceived best interests. Which could look like anything across the political spectrum. For those of us who can agree with your sentiment, we need to recognise that there are those that perceive or recognise correctly these repercussions as insurmountable. So a combined stance is just yielding ground to whoever isn't a part of that stance. That said given how much ground Labor took last election, I don't think they would be yielding that much. But who knows, maybe most people were only 51/49 for Labor.

It's only good if you live in walking/driving distance from a train line or bus way. Assuming the destination is also walking distance on the other end.

His party did try, but the voters weren't a big enough fan of that idea apparently. So bringing stupidity into the equation would probably just offend voters smart enough to realise that much.
