I guess it's *checks watch* time to kill Medicare.

Why you ask? Because if we are gonna also kill off Super you're gonna need those funds, to pay for your insulin.

At the end of the day if they keep wages flat the market isn't going anywhere.
It also means that existing loans wont be deleveraging as quickly as they anticipated sapping all the spending from the economy.

my tl;dr take is that cheap credit will continue to overinflate the property and asset bubble by sucking in investors (as will shares to a lesser extent). the major metro market will increase in the short term, but will fall further in the inevitable crash

Idk if there's a better place to ask this but I ran over an echidna tonight and it had a baby and I took it to the vet. It was so young it didn't have quills yet but was lively when I made it here and the vet was hopeful but doesnt know anything about echidnas

It wasnt injured and was a bit bigger than a tennis ball when it rolled up

How likely is it to survive? Does anyone here know anything about Echidnas. I really want that thing to live

Internet says that as long as the vet does his or her basic research tonight, and then gets it to an expert tomorrow, it will have a good chance of survival

Even though that must have been really upsetting for you, good job for having the presence of mind to think to check for a baby.

you did the right thing :unsmith: puggles need expert care because they're hard to feed and they struggle with thermoregulation, the best place to keep them is actually in an esky. the vet should hopefully know to get it to a carer asap. wildlife rescuers fight over who gets to look after the puggles because they are a blessing from heaven, so as soon as it's in care its prospects are good. thank you for your kindness

That is really interesting. I've been following the market up in Brisbane and it definitely is following a pattern where the only people who are selling are absolutely desperate to sell, and while there's been some movement in the market on the southside, this has been driven by people trying to buy cheap, renovate, and sell, and there's concern among agents (and my own analysis) that the margins are starting to become a bit too tight. It's bad enough that houses have actually started to come off the market, and potential buyers are tentative at best (trying to get cooling-off periods of 90 days +).

The squeeze seems to be both selling agents and property managers, and I know that at least one property group did a hiring round earlier this year. Unfortunately, everyone in that round was let go, so clearly forecasts were much more positive earlier this year, but have been revised downwards significantly. Places like Domain and elsewhere always like spruiking how good the market is, but turnaround/layoffs are also an excellent indicator of the health of the market (although it's a more difficult indicator to check out).

Of course, it's really going to hurt smaller, family-level outfits which rely on the previously-available large margins.

We got our house recently after offering right on the lower end of the price guide after it had already dropped. Didn't expect them to take it but being in a position where were able to offer a 30 day settlement helped heaps.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
