Les Affaires posted:Wall street making GBS threads itself isn't really the precipitator of a crash here, because a significant percentage of self funded retoirees are leveraged in the housing market, not the stock market. What would actually gently caress them is a couple of interest rate rises and those don't look to be on the cards here any time soon because inflation isn't there yet and neither is unemployment. Interest rate rises overseas will have an impact here because it increases Australian banks' borrowing costs, which they then need to pass on in the form of rate rises independent of whatever our Reserve Bank thinks. I wonder if the next movement of our official cash rate might be another decrease if the US rates go up and start affecting our economy. Don Dongington posted:This. Last time, we had a PM and the US had a President who were both willing to run stimulus programs, despite their generally neo-liberal leanings. Ours worked effectively; the Obama QE scheme 'worked' in the sense that the economy recovered relatively more quickly than the countries that ran policies of austerity (which is exactly what Tony Abbott was screaming for the whole time, and would have done if he had been in power). I don't think there are any reforms that can stave off a recession here. The housing market has been allowed to get to such a state that any changes to regulations or tax concessions will more than likely trigger a rush to sell.

Is there any data on the opinion that Labor's bad financial management made the almost recession worse? My impression is that it's more of an ingrained thing about how the Liberals are better at jobs, growth and making money and Labor are better with schools, hospitals and unemployment.

Anthony Mundine claims gay community should be subjected to capital punishment I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here star Anthony Mundine has barely had enough time to step out of the jungle, but the boxer has already made some controversial comments which have upset the wider Australian community. In footage obtained by The Daily Telegraph, after Mundine's emotional exit from the Channel Ten reality show, the 42-year-old claims he wants capital punishment for the gay community. Mundine revealed homosexuality, banned in Islam, was also shunned in Aboriginal culture. “If we were to live in a society, just like in Aboriginal culture, that homosexuality is forbidden and you do it and the consequences are capital punishment or death, you think you are going to do it? Or think twice about doing it?” "That's the only way to deter the problem," he continued. Mundine also said that paedophiles should face similar punishments. "Hang them suckers," he said, but clarified he was referring to "the paedophiles mainly". But the controversy did not stop there, the star also claimed that gay rights could be connected to the possible legalisation of paedophilia. "Because they are pushing these gay rights so much in the Western world, the paedophiles out there want their rights. "Now they are going to claim to have rights. They want their rights just like the gay people want their rights." --- different article --- Prior to going into the jungle, Mundine, who practices Islam, controversially stated he doesn’t believe in homosexuality, contraception or abortion. He also said he doesn’t think homosexuals — either people or characters — should be allowed on television as he fears it would influence children to become gay. “They are not going to be happy until they have primary school kids being gay,” he said when asked to clarify his views. “I talk the truth. It is the system. I don’t care if you are gay or not, it doesn’t worry me because the creator will judge you later. If you are going to be gay, do it behind closed doors, that is how it used to be in the olden days.”

My favourite part about this country is that even out-and-out corruption doesn't garner any interest from the electorate.

I think there's interest but also fatigue. I was thinking about the health innovation fund bribe against the states today. I seem to recall that money was pulled out of something important and placated people by saying it was going to be an innovation fund but now it's just (50%) going to hospital funding arrangements which aren't particularly innovative. I can't muster the energy to search for it because everything is poo poo and so many people are against what the government does but it never seems to matter.

Gonna be angry but not surprised if the story becomes "well she benefited so she's the villain". Also why is she being called his girlfriend. There's no way this wasn't a case of a boss using his power over a women to get her to sleep with him

I was watching Q&A the other day and they said that high wages can be bad because they make businesses uncompetitive so I'm just going to donate my extra wages to job creators so that they can disruptively innovate a 21st century big Data algorithm economy.

Arguably if your business can't pay your workers a livable wage and survive at the same time then it should simply fail because the business model isn't viable enough.

Wesfarmers made 2.87 billion last year with 220 000 employees. I think they can afford a little raise and still be competitive.

I think I heard the head of the Reserve Bank say he'd heard anecdotes that wages were rising, so there's a danger of inflation and we can't have that. No evidence mind you, just probably the captains of industry on the board who heard it as a rumour from a cafe business owner making 2.1 million a year.
