Anyone who believes there will be any kind of boom within the next few years are delusional and don't understand ecconomics, or are full of BSIf you look at all the facts you will see we are probably heading towards another 1929

Perhaps one day government will be run the way it should, but i doubt it.All they do is cause more and more problems, more regulations, more laws, take money here, spend it somewhere else, our whole sytem of government is retartedWhat would be best for the Australian people ? less regulation, less laws, less probitionThe federal law books should…[Read more]

History has show that when people knew what was going on they where thrown out of power.The usa was founded on the principles of keeping the central bank out of power, they came to be and have been throw out of America more then once before, you can research these…[Read more]

I like to call the business cycle farming because thats what it is to a select few, what people need to do is research for themselves why markets rise and fall, booms and busts… Is it just part of life or is it all artifically created by the powers that be ? The professionals will all tell you that it all comes down to Supply and Demand,  but…[Read more]

While we are on the band wagon, Is it just me or is life like a hill with an ever increasing gradient ? The harder you try to clime it the steeper it gets.I'm 21 now and have been working since I was 15 in the construction industry, I used to tell everyone when I was younger I would be successful and buy my own house before I was 20, but then I…[Read more]

And when the ecconomy is suffering from high interest rates, you can't just magically change the % number and fix everything, Thats not how things work, you have to print more money to lower interest rates and weaken the dollar which makes everything worse. Just look at U.S of A

Every Generation makes the same mistakes as the last, This is human nature.Everything was fine and dandy back in 1928, nothing could go wrong, but in the following years the middle class was wiped out, along with everyones savings.Though the difference today is the Ratio of debt is many times higher and loans are not for businesses (Good Debt,…[Read more]

Interest rates will increase no matter which government is in power (Labour/Liberal) but I believe that by labour now gaining control it will amplify the situation and result in a sharper and more powerfull increase in interest rates and inflation.Labour will literally spend spend spend and we will probably see budget deficits (The best way to…[Read more]

Rudd has Charisma, Youth and Elusive slogans but these are not the things required to successfully run a country. Does anyone in the labour party actually have any experience with the opperation of a country…or even a coffee shop for that matter ?We shall see if the same thing happens every time the reds are in power:Budget deficits and sub 10%…[Read more]

Ohh, I almost forgot to comment on what was said about passing off tradies after one year of apprenticeship, Apart from it being ridiculous, its irresponsible. I'm a self employed Plasterer and have been in the trade for 5 years, I'm still learning new things all the time.

I think you will find there is a reason Tradies charge hefty prices for silly little primary school jobs, As a Tradie myself there is nothing more annoying then traveling around the place to do a little bum job that makes you a few bucks when you could be working a full continuous day on a new house construction. Unbeknown to you the service which…[Read more]
