Paul1405,
I can't argue with that assessment ! Greed is the overall cause !

The news is that landlords are dumping investment properties - sales of rental homes up from 8% to 29.5% in a month. Rising costs, including mortgages are blamed.

The real blame lies with government interference and incompetence in matters they have no business meddling in.

What has government ever been competent in, apart from spending other peoples money?

This is National Homeless week, with 120,000 people, that's just shy of the population of Darwin, without a roof over their heads. Australians sleeping rough in parks, tents, the bush, doorways, on concrete, in cars. Its a national disgrace, and a pox on all political parties, state and federal, Labor, Coalition, Greens and the others for allowing such a terrible situation to develop, while all the time bickering among themselves. trying to score political points.
