Even Stephen is impressed by the kind of #Monster, #DonaldTrump appeals to be sometimes. As an #Author , who is always interested in #complex #Characters, he surely has an #Interest, how #DonaldTrump is ticking. #Truth is often #stranger than #Fiction and he may ask himself, that it would be #mandatory, to have invented a Character like Trump, if he wasn't already #existing.

Day 22 cont 📻💰💰💰🏡⚠️

Cont:

You: Phyllis is the first one, I guess.

Phyllis: I've broken the mould.
PM: Well, you're not ... you're not actually #complaining. What you're really saying is the value of [your] house hasn't gone up enough.

Phyllis: No, no, no. I disagree. I think it is ridiculous that the #inflation of house prices ... what about our #grandchildren?
PM: Well look, that is a valid point and I've acknowledged that.

I'm not saying there aren't problems for people buying for the first time, but you have to look at it in terms of both #existing #HomeOwners and #future home owners and what we have to try and do, and you quite rightly identify in relation to your grandchildren, is to find ways of mitigating the #cost of getting into your first home.

But we can't, and shouldn't do that at the cost of reducing the wealth effect and the wealth value of people who have existing properties, there's nothing to be gained by that. We have to find some other ways of #ameliorating the cost of buying your first home.

Phyllis: I think some commonsense has to be thrown into the arena just the same. You know, it's ridiculous. I mean, *you're not seeing value in the $500,000 you're spending on some broken down old dump* and…

PM: No, well...
Phyllis: That's where we are at the moment.”

The year housing turned toxic was captured in a talkback chat with PM

Do home owners ever complain when house prices rise? A former prime minister said they didn't, but we're now dealing with the fallout.

#Quotes #Kindness #Existing #Tolerance #Charity #Peace #SmallChanges #ArthurConanDoyle

This quote is new to me---it's like he looked into my heart and mind, for this is how I strive to life my life---though it can be hard at times, in the political and human nature realms.

"I should dearly love that the world should be ever so little better for my presence. Even on this small stage we have our two sides, and something might be done by throwing all one's weight on the scale of breadth, tolerance, charity, temperance, peace, and kindliness to man and beast. We can't all strike very big blows, and even the little ones count for something." -Arthur Conan Doyle, physician and writer (22 May 1859-1930)
