What could also help I think, is to have a high tax for property that is not rented out. (Where nobody is registered.) If, as a landloard, you know you’d have to pay 5% of the total house cost every year you don’t have a tenant, you would be strongly incentivized to rent out.

Well the share price could’ve risen due to expectations of a worse judgement. The analysis has to be a dofferent one. Just profit/loss.

From what I understood, the data comes from here: www.nap.edu.au/naplan/results-and-reports And specifically the national data here: www.acara.edu.au/…/naplan-national-results
(The article didn’t reference its sources I think? My comment is to complement.)

Does that sound legit? 😮 (I currently live in Europe, considering to move to AU. I’d rather have a realistic overview, with ups and downs presented fairly, so I’m curious.)

I’m personally new to reddit. Do you have any recommendations on what to do with posts that you think waste your time or provide disinformation? Unsubscribe from the author? (But that would not be scalable if communities and new people join.) Unsubscribe from groups [that don’t have moderation policies you align with]? But then I’d be pushing towards gated communities or something like that…
Any recommendations?
- Comment on Australia, why are you still obsessed with freeways – when they’re driving us away from net zero? 2 months ago:
It’s notable that the article focuses heavily on the eco impact. However, that’s only half of the story. The other half is how enjoyable cities can be when public transport complements cars and bicycles. Being on the street becomes actually nice. Your kids can bike to school themselves and not die on the first intersection. That sort of stuff. It’s absolutely amazing to live in countries/cities that mastered this
