The recent discussions about tax reform in Australia have got me thinking about how we keep circling the same drain without making real progress. Reading through various proposals and community reactions, it’s fascinating to see how deeply entrenched our resistance to meaningful change has become.

Remember the carbon tax? That brief moment when we actually led the world in climate action, only to have it torn down by political opportunism and vested interests. Now here we are, a decade later, still debating the same fundamental issues about tax reform, land use, and economic fairness.

The recent buzz about Amazon selling a $19K tiny home with a front porch got me thinking about our housing crisis here in Victoria. While scrolling through the comments about this bargain-priced dwelling, it became clear that what seems like a simple solution is actually a complex web of regulatory hurdles, council requirements, and industry resistance.

Living in a city where the median house price hovers around a million dollars, the idea of affordable pre-fabricated homes sounds incredibly appealing. But the reality is far more complicated than simply ordering a house off Amazon and having it delivered to your block of land.
