1
Well, as you would have expected,
2
the fallout from Budget 2026,
3
which has been absolutely catastrophic,
4
if you are to believe the press.
5
I can't remember them being this rabid.
6
Oh, yes, I can.
7
When they were spreading all of those lies immediately after the Bondi tragedy.
8
They are at that level.
9
They are that rabid.
10
We will be going into the reasons why in this video,
11
and we will be outlining all of the lines that they had pre-planned for this.
12
They sniffed it out.
13
This is the one move that they absolutely didn't want to happen.
14
And why is that?
15
Why is that?
16
Well, it's actually the same reason that everybody always goes,
17
oh, the reason that Labor doesn't do anything on this is because they own houses.
18
You know who else owns houses?
19
I mean, first off, it's wrong.
20
They've tried to do this three times in the past.
21
I've always hated that talking point because it just flies in the face of reality.
22
But the other reason is,
23
as you will see, the entire press class owns a bunch of properties you know why
24
because the press class is very much part of
25
that shit tier private school list you know like
26
so it's like journalists advertisers marketers real estate agents look i understand
27
that there's some good people i will always say this about real estate agents i think
28
that there are very good real estate agents out there but
29
if you are a real estate agent
30
that is a good one you've got to admit
31
that 95 are absolute mosquitoes they are the lowest of the low human beings.
32
You know this.
33
Come on.
34
I'm not saying anything else.
35
I can take a sling of myself as well.
36
I'm a YouTuber.
37
90% of us are, you know, into kids.
38
This is the ice cream man job of the 21st century, you know?
39
Like, look, there's a lot of scum in a lot of professions and it seems to attract a certain level, doesn't it?
40
And so this one is,
41
like this hair is always just attracting annoying me.
42
Anyway, sorry, this is more important things the world i've got the same newsreader responses as well oh my hair
43
but they are part of
44
that private school graduate it's very journalist i know these people they were people
45
that didn't do amazingly well in the private school system despite the fact
46
that they had all these connections and so you know as part of
47
that this is sort of their welfare oh we'll put them
48
in channel nine we'll give them a job in channel seven
49
we'll give them a job at the abc i always wanted to do something arts
50
and crafty there you go there's a creative job it's
51
that type of person that knows
52
that they are not skilled enough to actually make money
53
but they still want to be part of that elite gentry class
54
and this was sort of their welfare this is what howard set up this is what capital gains
55
and negative gearing are all about it is about keeping a
56
shitty parasitic gentry class in their position of sort of acting
57
as this welfare leech sponge off of the working class
58
because really what are you doing there like
59
if you are rich off of capital gains
60
and negative gearing again totally not blaming anyone for this
61
because they told the entire generation to do this
62
but what are you doing really you are not creating anything
63
you are not creating any it is an obscene waste of
64
money we're talking trillions of dollars trillions of dollars pumped into assets
65
that do nothing it is the exact opposite of what a
66
good economy is a good economy is productive money doing productive
67
things this is unproductive money doing really really damaging things it
68
is just creating a serfdom class that's what it's doing this is why it needed to be reversed
69
and obviously
70
that parasitic gentry class like i haven't liked the gentry class
71
of old i like the ones with their little curtsies
72
and their nice top hats but we never had
73
that in australia we had a squatocracy
74
which is just absolute leeches like gina reinhardt and twiggy just people
75
that look no discernibly different from jabber to heart it's
76
that type of gentry
77
and then they created this other shitty gentry of marketers advertisers real estate agents
78
and they're just crap you know like i don't think this about the elite private schoolers
79
that were smart enough to get into i don't know private
80
equity banking high finance these are actually important parts of the infrastructure of the economy they build things
81
but there is that entire class of people
82
that just aren't talented enough to actually generate any wealth this was their insurance plan they're obviously cracking the sheets
83
and you can see it throughout the entire press they are
84
livid about this you know they always try to keep this impartial objective angle
85
and like yes we're being very cynical and snarky
86
but you know i'm trying to be objective there's none of
87
that you can hear the rage in them because they understand that the gravy train has ended.
88
When they are talking about, what about the children?
89
Now the children won't get to do this.
90
Yeah, your shitty Nepo children won't get to do this,
91
but you know what's going to happen?
92
The rest of us
93
that didn't have rich parents are going to be able to afford a house
94
or at least a shot at owning the house.
95
All of these changes have nothing to do with you owning a house.
96
It has everything to do with being a landlord.
97
It is harder to be a landlord because of these changes, the humanity.
98
And I think that they are genuinely concerned about their Nepo babies.
99
One, because I don't think that they have faith in them
100
that they are going to be able to enter the elite class on a sort of like even ground.
101
They need that unfair advantage of just inheriting all of this wealth that they didn't deserve.
102
I think that they are genuinely upset about that because their investments haven't changed.
103
They keep saying that over and over.
104
Oh, it's about the children.
105
They are not concerned about their investment portfolios and they shouldn't be either
106
because that's completely fair if the rules were again we elected howard
107
that was on us that is entirely our fault we have to live with
108
that but
109
if he set up the rules as you invest in this way you don't get to retroactively come in
110
and be like there's a new government in town thuggy shit
111
you know like really thuggish revolutionary scary let's chop people's heads off stuff
112
that is not the way to run a society a civilized one at the very least you don't get to say,
113
oh, anyone that wears an Ed Hardy shirt is killed.
114
You get to say in the future,
115
anyone that wears an Ed Hardy shirt is killed.
116
And honestly, it shows a lack of conviction that Labor won't implement that because that is utter trash as a brand.
117
But the thing is, it really shows that they have no concern for this country at all.
118
Anyone that is concerned about this,
119
pure self-interest, or at the very least, my family.
120
You know, that real mafia, this is the family.
121
Like, that is the worst way this is why i think democracy is a stain
122
because like you cannot have a functioning democracy
123
if people are not invested in the nation like they think
124
when they go to the polls oh what's good for me
125
and my family for a national election like let alone a local election that's selfish enough
126
but a national election what is in the nation's interest and and you're thinking,
127
what is it in my interest?
128
It's the exact opposite of the Kennedy quote, the exact opposite.
129
This is how they look at the world.
130
And if you kept this going for another 20 years,
131
you watch because there's a bunch.
132
This is why everybody always goes on and on about like,
133
oh, you're such a labor shill.
134
And like, yeah, because I actually get results.
135
Look at the rest of the Western world.
136
There is very, very few other governments in the Western world that have the balls to do what labor just did.
137
They are paying a huge price.
138
They are getting absolutely hammered,
139
slammed, And they will not let this go.
140
This will dog them for the rest of their term.
141
And it'll dog them for the terms after that.
142
And you'll have the Liberals promising to bring back the capital gains tax discount.
143
Watch.
144
Like, this is the thing.
145
This is the upper middle classes Medicare.
146
This is the thing that they were just like,
147
you don't get to touch this.
148
They are livid about this.
149
But again, it's because they benefit from it at the expense of those in the working class.
150
it's really sickening it's really really self-absorbed and also just like
151
how bad of a person are you my investment portfolio relies
152
on not building something not bringing other people up it relies
153
on keeping other people in poverty anyway we are going to
154
react to the entire press class melting down as well as the usual opportunism of the greens
155
and liberals
156
and the independents all chucking tantrums for different reasons basically trying
157
to get this type of person up in arms about all of this
158
and really i hope to god i think
159
that this is what i'm getting the general public looks at this
160
and thinks no these people are awful
161
but we are just going to point out just how filthy these people are like the anybody
162
that has anything against this is a very selfish person.
163
Straight up.
164
They have no societal interest at all.
165
Anyway, speaking of self-interest, I will be touring across the United States.
166
Oh, isn't that good on an Australian specific video?
167
But yeah, Vancouver, Chicago, Ferndale,
168
wherever the hell that is.
169
Toronto, that's a place.
170
Boston, Brooklyn, like I'm going to a lot of places.
171
Make sure that you go to Friendly Geordies Live.
172
Also, I've got tickets for Sydney left.
173
I think I think the rest of them are sold out.
174
Thank you very much.
175
Aubrey as well.
176
I think that's got a couple of tickets.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
