Missing the real fireworks

Crank the Croc

MISSED IT BY THAT MUCH
WATCHED the AFL grand final on Saturday. I watch one game every year and this year I learned that whenever fans rabidly scream ‘ball’ it’s because… oh, who really cares.
More importantly the missus was spewing because we were watching Fox Sports, which as it turns out wasn’t even showing it live, and so we missed Katy Perry. I was sad too.
WHERE do all our taxes go for the 44 months of a four-year term when the government isn’t trying to win re-election? It was just a thought I had after reading that Labor was promising the Beerwah Bulldogs $100,000 if it wins re-election. Good luck with that.
The Doggies deserve it, but it’s a moot point unless the LNP (and likely next government) offers the same?
NEGATIVE NELLIES
IT’S hard to feel too sorry for anyone who invests in a way that’s deliberately designed to run at a loss.
The bleating and moaning usually comes from people with multiple properties who are more than happy to hike up rents when it suits them to maintain their little fiefdoms. Let’s not beat around the bush. Negative gearing pushes property prices higher, kills affordability and the rich get richer. Great system.
