Some interesting thoughts, I don't believe the priorities in Australia are not conducive for the betterment or sustained growth of any industry unfortunately. Most Australian's seem to still be drinking the Kool-aid and hold the property market as the pinnacle of smart investing above all else. I mean it is fair enough, it's made some pretty average people multi millionaires for doing nothing more than just being right place right time. There is no real incentive to push the boundaries in other areas when you can sit back and watch the investment grow whilst also claiming tax incentives.
Would a pro-longed recession and the collapse of the status quo be what is needed for a fresh take on the countries future?
