  Think about what you just said for a second.

  If the price doubles and the profit margin remains the same, that exactly means that the price is inelastic.

  Which is directly synonymous with saying the price is not subject to supply and demand pressure because that would imply elasticity.

  You pointed to price inelasticity as proof of price elasticity. God fucking damn.

  It makes the already-wealthy owners of the extraction license wealthier and nothing more than that you boot sucking goon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No one can escape this housing crisis — it's coming for homeowners too⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem is that if you own a home and you’ve paid off the mortgage or paid it down over 20 years already then there’s no reason to sell, meaning prices likely won’t fall that much as people will prefer to sit on their asset than to sell at a loss, or at a perceived loss relative to what they were previously told the market would pay for it.

  The only mechanism for prices to actually return to earth and make housing affordable again is wage growth and inflation, and the hope that housing prices don’t simply rise alongside wage growth.

  Even if you conquer the mountain of ending negative gearing and the insanely generous tax subsidies that investors get, even then you need to wait a decade just to see prices enter a sane rage relative to income again.

  Millennials are doomed. Half of them will be renting until they die. The only way out of this trap is to making own 3-10 homes a bad investment. But can you imagine any Australian government decommodifying housing? It’s not going to happen which means a generation of renters and a poverty time bomb when the millennials want to retire.

  For people stuck in the renting trap already in their 40s, they’re doomed now and the best idea the intelligentsia have is “maybe just live with your rich parents who sent you to a private school a bit longer and ask them for a loan.”

  It’s a lifestyle choice to live in a tent and not invade some rich persons mansion.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨John Howard says he ‘always had trouble’ with the concept of multiculturalism⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  6Howard always implied a distinction between Asian countries and Australia’s Asian communities. As Brett (Citation2003: 151) reminds us, Asian-Australians were consistently presented as individuals instead of members of cultural groups. As such, and by virtue of the fact that they had brought in values like family, hard work and entrepreneurial flair – not coincidentally the restricted pool of ‘Asian values’ that overlapped with Howard’s cultural outlook – ‘Australians of Asian descent’ could aspire to be ‘as honoured citizens as any other section of the Australian community’ (Howard Citation1996).This circumstance allowed the ‘integration’ of Asians as individuals maintaining the separateness from Asian countries from the identitarian point of view.

  8In a speech to the Heritage Foundation – often overlooked supposedly because it was given three years into his ‘retirement’ – Howard (Citation2010: 5–6) stated that ‘the values that bind the United States, Great Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand … are deeper and more abiding … than the bonds between any other countries’ and that ‘one of the errors that some sections of the English-speaking world have made in the past few decades has been to confuse multiracialism and multiculturalism’, to conclude that ‘the English-speaking nations have made an enormous contribution  … in excess of any other grouping of countries – to the defence of liberty in the last two hundred years’. Howard thus appropriated the whole intellectual body underlying the Anglospherist perspective in its entirety.

  Emphasizing “shared values” in international relations and emphasizing the closeness of “values” with similarly anglo-sphere nations.

  The “shared values” rhetoric is a very thin wrapper hiding outright white supremacism.
