There is further evidence Australia's ongoing housing crisis is deepening as the national vacancy rate hits a record low of 0.7 per cent, according to Domain.
I’m sure if we keep voting for the Libor and Laberal parties they will eventually fix it right?
Yeah, replying “Get fucked” to a response that brings up a lot of good counter-arguments to your original point will certainly make it look like you were bringing up immigration in good-faith.
Actually you sound more like a Karen. Care to explain how your comment is any different from a “Fuck Off We’re Full!” sticker?
As @[email protected] stated, immigration is not the only factor driving population growth and the housing crisis. Instead of attempting to lower demand, shouldn’t we be rapidly increasing supply?
I’m not sure where in my comment you think I called you racist mate. A huge chunk of our immigration is from New Zealand & the UK anyway. Do the math, our population would be shrinking without it.
Like other people have said, why not focus on supply instead? We should implement an aggressive property rates regime on unoccupied homes. The National Rental Affordability Scheme is coming to an end in 2 years time, but it could be re-funded with that money. As well as fast-tracking social housing projects.
An outright ban on absentee foreign ownership of residential property would also probably help supply a lot. It’s ridiculous that someone who doesn’t have a right to live in Australia, can still own a home here.
Get fucked Karen. Not every complaint involving immigration is racism…
