1
Well, I think that there's one thing that we can all agree on,
2
and that is that Trump has a grand plan.
3
Because it looks like right now,
4
the American job market is collapsing.
5
It's around the same level that it was during the GFC.
6
It is an indicator of a recession hurtling towards the American economy,
7
which obviously affects us all.
8
That single stat is freaking me out.
9
And the fact that Trump has put all of these external pressures on it,
10
One Nation voters take note.
11
Yes, you can address migration if you do it in that ice way and don't replace it with anything else.
12
This is what starts to happen.
13
That's one of the things that he's done.
14
It was also just the chopping and changing with the trade tariffs.
15
It's also the fact that as a result of chopping and changing with the trade tariffs,
16
people aren't so invested in the American economy anymore.
17
They're looking for other ways to invest their money.
18
And this is all leading to that.
19
And then on top of that,
20
he just chucks a blockade on as well.
21
So what does that all mean for back home?
22
I think that Jim Chalmers actually said it best when he's just out there publicly being like,
23
I've been talking to a lot of dignitaries across the world.
24
And I think that we're all at the consensus that we're really pissed off.
25
Everyone's so angry.
26
Like the fact, I know that this is old news at this point,
27
but the fact that Keir Starmer basically thought,
28
righto chaps um this whole america empire thing isn't working out anymore should we just bring back the british empire
29
and then just got all of these world leaders all of these ambassadors to sit in the same room
30
and not invite the united states like not even just the united states didn't feel like going there
31
because they didn't have they had more important things to do
32
just like no no you know you can't sit with us
33
that is revolutionary i never thought that i would see
34
that sort of soft power shunning of the United States in my lifetime.
35
Like, I thought that the United States empire was going to decline in my lifetime.
36
I didn't think that it would be happening this fast,
37
and I didn't think that I would ever be saying something like that.
38
I thought that they'd just be like how France has veto in the UN or something,
39
and it's like this hangover.
40
Yeah, no, no, it's still important.
41
It'd be that, but no,
42
no, no, it's not even that.
43
And so now you just have actively one of the biggest lackeys in the world,
44
which is us, proud to be their lapdog.
45
And us lapdog is just like,
46
like really thinking about biting the hand that feeds us i think
47
that it's mostly
48
because jim chalmers had a very comprehensive view of what he
49
wanted to do in this term what he wanted to release what he wanted to reform in the economy
50
and that's all out the window now uh i know from talking to people
51
that work in parliament that it There's been a huge scramble over the last couple of months
52
because what the budget was is no longer the budget.
53
That's all just apparated.
54
It's a mirage.
55
It's thin air.
56
There was going to be a lot of cost of living relief.
57
This was about the previous cost of living crisis.
58
Then Trump just dumped another cost of living crisis on top of that.
59
And so now they're kind of like,
60
well, now we can't do that.
61
He's still, and apparently this is word on the street.
62
I don't know if this is going to happen because you never do until the budget's out.
63
But apparently he is still going ahead with housing reform,
64
which I'm getting flashbacks.
65
I'm getting 2019 flashbacks.
66
I'm really scared.
67
But also on top of that,
68
yeah, like, yeah, it does need to happen at some point.
69
The planning behind that, I think,
70
because look, if we go look in my lifetime,
71
if there is one election that I think we can all agree,
72
God, it would have been nice if Labour squeaked through on just that one.
73
Yes.
74
OK, it would have been awesome if Kim Beasley was prime minister purely
75
because of all the fat jokes that we could have made
76
but uh i think that it would have been bill short
77
and don't you think that 2019 election because after
78
that you had the bushfires you had covert and i think
79
that we would have been set up so much better as a country
80
if we had a government in as opposed to a man
81
that has a marketing degree and we shit at marketing
82
that would have been better i think i think we can
83
all agree now can't we oh god i hope we can
84
so we've done this to death but there was a couple of major reasons for
85
that turns out and this was released in the epstein files by the way that it was just clive palmer being like,
86
I want more coal mines.
87
And so he just dumped heaps of money into the election to make sure that they lost.
88
But then the other big one was,
89
and this was all tied into that because he was also talking about housing,
90
the housing scare campaign.
91
That was a big factor of the loss in 2019.
92
So Labor learning from its mistakes,
93
realized that in the last election that they were going to have to promise
94
that there was going to be no reforms on that.
95
What they did instead was go for the supply strategy,
96
which was to just build many,
97
many, many more houses, as well as set up the social safety net,
98
which we've done the greens blocking that was just deplorable on many occasions.
99
It wasn't just the half by the way it was also
100
and this is just a little tip it's astonishing to me how many of you don't know this
101
but the government does take the burden of some of your house the help to buy scheme exists there's people
102
that come up to me all the time are like yeah i've got it
103
and i have to educate my friends on this it's an astonishing thing
104
that labor has set up which is
105
that a big percentile of your house is available for you
106
to apply for the government to say all right we'll just own this chunk of the house
107
and so that immediately reduces your mortgage massively so
108
that was the big move in this was just trying to
109
like get rid of all the blocks to getting people into a house
110
and that has had undeniable results we could go into a long video about
111
that but the major thing that obviously needs to happen just like over the long term but But this is,
112
again, negative gearing and capital gains,
113
probably not going to do anything immediately.
114
But over the long term,
115
as we've seen with Howard,
116
it was a very corrosive,
117
devastating effect on the economy.
118
And made it to this point where there were so many boomers
119
that had to buy in to putting their investments into housing instead of superannuation.
120
It's all a big conspiracy theory.
121
But the point is that that has really skyrocketed housing in this country, tightened the supply.
122
So what Labour's strategy was,
123
was to just build so many houses that you can kind of just outdo
124
that what i didn't appreciate at the time and this is something
125
that i should have picked up on because this is always labor strategy
126
when they are in their strategy is
127
that you change what big business is like if you change the way
128
that people make money in a country you change the country
129
regardless of what government's in power it's superannuation is a great example of it there's a ton others
130
that should have been the ets thanks a lot greens but there's many of these examples of labor coming in
131
changing the way that the economy is being incentivized.
132
And then as a result of that,
133
things just start naturally correcting themselves.
134
That was the grand plan of increasing supply,
135
that they were signaling to property developers,
136
this is how you are going to make your money from now on.
137
We are not going to be buying up existing houses.
138
The way that you are going to make your money and we are going to help incentivize this,
139
We are putting in a bunch of,
140
you know, all kinds of regulatory assistance for you to get this happening.
141
We're also going to be putting in a ton of money,
142
huge amounts of money spent on housing in the last term of labor.
143
What they are doing is they are ensuring
144
that a huge chunk of the housing lobby that in 2019 sunk labor in this election cycle,
145
they're not going to be like,
146
no, that's my livelihood because they're changing what their livelihood is.
147
They're changing their livelihood from buying up existing housing stock to creating housing stock.
148
Do you see how that has opened up the playing field for these reforms to happen now?
149
It was a genius stroke.
150
Massively, very, again, long-term thinking.
151
This is the incredible thing about governments like this,
152
and you've got to give credit to Jim Chalmers.
153
As you can see by the fact that he is even contemplating bringing back Keating-style capital gains,
154
the man's PhD was worth its salt.
155
He really did study and has embodied Keating.
156
So that is the grand plan there.
157
So I think that they're still going ahead with
158
that there's still I think going ahead with a bunch of NDIS reform
159
because obviously as it's gone out like you know with our
160
big beef with Drew Pavlou as you can see yeah there's a lot of money in it
161
and what he will always deny to the grave is
162
that Labor has been addressing that I think
163
that it was like an increase of like 20%
164
that it was going up by and they've already halved
165
that to 10 they're aiming to try and get
166
that to like around the five ish percent of increase in NDIS spending right so
167
So that's the next phase that they're rolling out on that.
168
However, it's got to be said,
169
this budget, big, big reforms in those two areas.
170
But other than that, it's looking like it's going to have to be,
171
let's just weather out COVID 3.0 that Trump has decided to put onto the world.
172
There you go, One Nation voters.
173
That's what you didn't vote for,
174
but seem to think that you do because you live on X
175
so much that you think that you're a citizen of the United States.
176
That's him.
177
That is him.
178
Just so you know,
179
because it seems like everybody else in the world has cottoned on to the fact that it's Strub's fault,
180
except for X.
181
Hey, also, I've got shows coming up in Darwin.
182
I've also got shows coming up in some northern Queensland towns.
183
I can't remember where they are.
184
Look, they're on the link here.
185
Thank you for listening.

I'll have some more updates later.

什么是跟读法?

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
