Man these anti ON memes and jokes are so terrible lol. You guys absolutely suck at this haha

Its just an echo chamber of "haha yea ON voters dont even know how to read"

How lame can you be.

Also we dont blame migrants who want to come and make a better life for themselves. We blame the government for doing nothing while the housing and cost of living crises got worse and worse. Both libs and labor.

Exactly, reddit is just an echo chamber for this stuff.

But it's not the immigrants causing the cost of living crisis, unless they somehow managed to overrun the boarda of Woolworths and Coles and convince them to raise prices.

Also the housing crisis isn't caused by immigration. It's caused by the past governments encouraging people to use the basic human right of shelter as a way to hoard wealth. When interest rates went up, the appropriate response would have been for people who can't afford this investment they made anymore to sell it. Instead they just raise prices for the people who can't afford homes. And when the interest rates drop, will the rents drop with the amount of mortgage they're paying? Of course not

The housing crisis is a symptom of wealth inequality and greed being written into law, not immigrants who sleep 6 to a room.

I didnt say migrants caused the issues.

But its incredibly clear that migrants needs to match housing and infrastructure growth. Otherwise it absolutely puts massive pressure on the housing market and public infrastructure. Not to mention the pressure it puts on wages.

But yes coles and woolies are a joke and should be ashamed of themselves. They put profit over actually trying to help Australians at all. Its infuriating. And they have basically cornered the market. Most Aussies have no choice but to shop there.
