Dear Hasbeen,

Did you really just compare a woman with a couple of jointly owned low end investment properties to a bloke with nearly 300 of them?

How astoundingly idiotic attempt at some kind of whataboutism.

As a bloke who voted against Labor's attempt at the last election to try and right the balance a little you really have absolutely no standing here.

Time to give it a miss.

Hasbeen,
Now there's a Dictator worthy to be kicked out !

Indy,

We need to turf out these old aged pensioners living one or two, in 4 or 5 bedrooms, and collecting beer and pokie money each fortnight from the taxpayer. You'll be right old salt like the other 95% of pensioners who vote Liberal, once the Seniors National Service is up and running, living down in the new burb of Sunny Gulag, you'll love your tent. I just checked the weather forecast for tomorrow down there, -25C and 90 km/hr winds, snowing for half the day. Gee, summer has come early down at Sunny Gulag, amazing, weather like that, don't forget to pack your sun tan lotion!

SR,

You are either a landlord or you are not. Properties are an investment for retirement and landlords generally don't draw on welfare and also provide a needed service to the community. Attack on Landlords is pure envy.

Pauliar,
Your desire to strip pensioners of their houses is typical of the dictatorial intentions of the gangreens. How about addressing the reasons why often pensioners don't downsize. Primarily the cost of selling and the stamp duty they need to pay on the new premises which often leaves them with no extra cash after the transaction.

Properties are an investment for retirement
shadowminister,
Yes, so why are so many landlords not looking at the future ? Most of them are after profit now, not for when the retire !

Indy,

Are you still living in that free house the taxpayer paid for when you migrated to Aussie? I can recall in the 1960's the catch cry from dinky-di's; "The wogs have got all the houses!". 95% of 1960 migrants got free houses, and 95% of them were Liberal voters. Now 95% are on the aged welfare, and 95% of them are still voting Liberal!
