Lab Housing Policy and Negative Gearing

Doesn't scare me Scott, as I don't invest in property and I have never deliberately negatively geared with shares.

Mine is just a question to the clowns that harp on continuosly about negative gearing, the politicians on the left included. Seems to me that
Labor and The Greens just jump to conclusions and outcomes without any thought process. The intention to tax some SMSFs on unrealised
capital gains is a perfect example of the lack of financial understanding and lack of fairness by the left.
The fact that Jim Chalmers was on the news yesterday saying that Labor have no intention of changing negative gearing laws is reason enough to believe that they might.

I have thought for a long time that the CGT discount is way too generous, and I have gained considerably from this discount over the years.
However I see that the current system in Australia is way too inequitable and handouts to middle Australia are way too generous. While the handouts to middle Australia continue unabated I will gladly keep taking my CGT concessions.

Labor has a history of taxing the successful and giving the money to the unproductive.

"Jim Chalmers was on the news yesterday saying that Labor have no intention of changing negative gearing laws is reason enough to believe that they might.". ..... then the manipulative lying propaganda exercise has had its effect. they've caused you to consider that whatever the Lab mob say is likely to be a lie.

they gotcha cappie.

you seem determined to find fault with any political angle or mob but not the Libs. and so you don't see their timing, how the suggestion of a return to Shorten's policies spooks the horses, how the Libs calling Liar causes you to believe they are liars. when in fact, its the Libs that are lying. and how such suspicion turns to add in other possible changes - they started with NG and now the local Lib supporters add in CGT just to keep the ball rolling.

I know that you aren't gullible cappie. but you see the mechanisms of the propaganda machine and how it's used, so imagine how the weaker brains of some could easily be turned? all this is nothing but political games mate.

keep in mind the Abbott/Morrison lies and note how Dud lies and manipulates the media to turn a sensible decision that so many have been calling for into a mess of assumptions and leaps of conclusions that the Libs inspire.

as for "inequitable" thats precisely what the Morrison S3 cuts were. what has been done returns the balance so that the wealthy benefit but get less while those on lower incomes get a similar cut rate.

I'm surprised you come out with a trope of "Labor has a history". ...... the libs have a strong history of lying and broken promises and take from the poor in order to give to the wealthy, eg the S3TCs.

use your own free thinking mind mate, refuse to accept propaganda and question the veracity of their claims.
