Mojo ♻️The Federal Budget had a whole new section on #housing , but dwelling construction targets look unlikely to be met. Alan Kohler asks if we should be making more use of the existing stock. #auspol #budget2024 #housingcrisis #rentalcrisis

ghost_shit@mojo We desperately need a hefty vacancy tax.
@ghost_shit Absolutely !
Implementing a substantial vacant property tax could be a significant step toward alleviating the housing shortage in Australia. With over a million vacant homes, it's crucial to incentivse property owners to either rent out or sell these properties, making more homes available for those in need. #pigsfly #nevergoingtohappen #greed

@mojo Well, when you look at how may of our parliamentarians own multiple houses...
Bot4Sale@mojo @ghost_shit When you enter parliament you have to divest all of your interests (ie. Stop being a ceo for a company, sell stocks you might own,etc). Owning investment property however somehow doesn't factor into being an asset that needs to be divested.

Andrew Jennings@mojo @ghost_shit see the abc article today on why 1m is not the number
@andyjennings @ghost_shit well in that case, nothing to worry about, inconvenience a few hundred people. Bring #vacantpropertytax out asap
@mojo @ghost_shit somebody used water usage data to work out the actual number of vacant properties, but I can't find the study
