Saves me doing an...<i>"They are all cunts."</i><br /><br />Saves me doing anything resembling research :-)<br /><br />The scarcity over in the east is certainly artificial. Victoria may be the smallest (mainland) and most densely populated state but there's still only about two thirds the population of greater London living in an area the size of the UK. How the fuck can anything cost a million dollars without artificial scarcity (among other things) driving up prices? Yet $1 million would be a bargain price in most of the inner suburbs. With this much space the only way a house should be more than a million bucks is if it's a penthouse overlooking the Yarra with hot and cold running nymphomaniacs.Angry Exilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02491082312193274360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-5608933563432794872010-03-20T08:25:00.899+00:002010-03-20T08:25:00.899+00:00This one describes it much better than I ever coul...This one describes it much better than I ever could..<br /><br />http://ipa.org.au/news/2086/it's-time-misguided-land-starvation-was-stoppedthefrollickingmolenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-77582778565266013542010-03-20T02:52:36.445+00:002010-03-20T02:52:36.445+00:00Try an area called Karratha in NW Australia.

Its part of the huge boom in gas/minerals and accounts for a large part of Australias wealth.<br /><br />Now check out how planning and Native title have combined to produce this sort of perversion.<br /><br />http://www.realestate.com.au/cgi-bin/rsearch?id=karratha&a=qfp&cu=fn-rea&t=ren<br /><br />No rent under $1000 per week, most around $2500. <br />I did the roadworks on the last major land relese up there over ten years ago. No land has been released for residential building since then.<br /><br />So wages are high, but theres still houses where each couple only has one room in a 3 bedroom place.<br />Any small jobs such as shop assistants, deli owners etc, cant afford to stay in town unless your on 80K per year.<br /><br />In the city its another story, the cry is "urban sprawl" like 1/4 acre blocks and lots of open space is a sin against GAIA.<br />Property developers like it, government (which collects rates based on the value of the LAND each house is on) makes sypatheytic noises, but rakes in millions more than they should because of artifical land scarcity.<br /><br />They are all cunts.thefrollickingmolenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-15194652908467446702010-03-19T18:31:41.757+00:002010-03-19T18:31:41.757+00:00No, it's my increasingly shoddy editing skills...No, it's my increasingly shoddy editing skills as well. :o(Obnoxio The Clownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12012089552153702526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-5356193563905816952010-03-19T18:24:39.310+00:002010-03-19T18:24:39.310+00:00Wasn't just your "increasingly shoddy mat...Wasn't just your "increasingly shoddy maths" then?Angry Exilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02491082312193274360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-21725631978132867772010-03-19T17:20:55.003+00:002010-03-19T17:20:55.003+00:00WA is a LOT bigger than 12x Greater London.

But I suspect that I'll find that every fucking square inch of the whole country is ultimately owned by the cunts in Canberra or is bought, sold and used only with their approval. What people actually think is that it's me and the million or so other ex-pat poms moving over here and buying up the land, especially in Perth which has a bit of a little England reputation, but how can that be when there's a whole fucking continent east of Perth with nearly fuck all until you get to the eastern states?<br /><br />BTW, I think WA is more than 12 times the size of Greater London unless they've built it up quite a bit in the last four years. ;-)Angry Exilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02491082312193274360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4471993488623327927.post-78096046414251623642010-03-19T12:01:27.620+00:002010-03-19T12:01:27.620+00:00Tenuous link to a good tune on a Friday, bravoTenuous link to a good tune on a Friday, bravoTimdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08225417382255695334noreply@blogger.com
