This country has spent the last 25 years voting for policy designed to supercharge housing prices and sell out future generations. Even with our current crisis we still vote to drive prices up. No government with a plan to even stagnate housing costs has a hope in hell of being elected. Australians won’t have it. Besides younger and poorer demographics who walk through life knowing they’ll never own a house and their peers want to keep it that way.
Yeah… Every measure to make houses more affordable has just been, we’ll give young home buyers more money. Which only increases house prices by whatever amount they decide on. Oh and how could I forget that it’s actually the fault of immigrants because Australia has never been able to affordably house an immigrant population.
