Nonsense! Your stupid people have passed laws that ban smoking in the open
air. What have they done about interest rates?

No they haven't , and they have done nothing about interest rates ,
those have reached a level consistent with rates the world over.
What our stupid Liberal voters have done is borrow heavily on the
equity in their homes.

That must make me an intelligent voter, then, as I own 2 of my 3
properties outright and the 3rd has a mortgage smaller than some of my
friends' credit card debts :-)

Any rise in interest rates will see them suffer
massive monthly repayments

Amen. I haven't forgotten Keating and 17% interest rates.

As I recall, you achieved that by cashing in on your Sydney
equity, correct? Means you can never go back, of course, but
that's no loss.
