Economic Impacts of The Labour Gov't & The Covid Virus

[Perry]

Still no signs of a collapsing house price market.
Or - by sharp house price adjustment - did finance munster RobUsome mean upwards?...

[Perry]

I do wonder about this.The demographic aspect. The societal / cultural changes perhaps implied? I.e. Gone shall be the days of 'owning' a piece of the half-gallon, quarter-acre, pavlova paradise.

[Perry]

Now I wonder who or what is behind those problems?

Couldn't possibly be the 10,000 affordable houses a year false predictor-prophets, now, could it?...

[Perry]

Fascinating. Entitlement mentality can be harmful.

[Perry]

What was the original purpose?
If it's no longer still valid, perhaps the costs of winding up (now) would be a waste of money?...

[Perry]

Why the proposed wind-up?

[Perry]

Comrade commissar Cindy's socio-commie gummint does not like bad news. Not at all.

Anything remotely like it will always be portrayed as someone else's fault for not being a suitably compliant collaborateur.

[Perry]

Some bad news for the W'gton comrade commissariat with a hint of a prediction thrown in.

Rents rocket to all-time high, record biggest annual increase with warning for after lockdown
26/08/2021

Market unlikely to return to high level of price growth after lockdown...

[Perry]

It's fun stretching it, isn't it? Intention and after-the-fact outcome sound like legal quicksand, to me. What's 'permanent' when assessing an outcome? A month? Year? Decade? Century?

I also thought this was a bit of a stretch, too:



A road roller has no suspension,...

[Perry]

I agree, but, as I see it, therein lies the nub. I.e. That interpretation would lead to . . .

If it's moveable, irrespective that it's permanently lived in, it's a vehicle.

End of the matter?

I'll wager not. ...

[Perry]

Can you use the same option you have to bring the Dall decision to the forum, please?

There's no doubt that [67] and [68] are thought-provoking.

OCR software can often get some words wrong, but with that caveat, here are those sections for PT forumites to read.

Building materials shortage: Tradespeople unable to offer fixed prices due to shortages

7 Sep 2021


That should really help with the current year's 10,000 affordable houses promised by Labour. ...

[Perry]

Is the option of building a transportable home - DIY - a useful compound solution?...

[Perry]

From my experience, you materially understate the stress factor.

Having taken councils to the Planning Tribunal, District and High Courts, I tell you that such is far from a small stress....

[Perry]

The current (Aug / Sep 2021) lock-down extensions do seem far less credible than the first nationwide one month close down. The people in Greymouth, Riverton and like places would rightly be wondering what they'd done wrong, to be treated so.

Auckland PIs should be grateful that comrade...

Shepherding a few errant posts to a more apposite topic header.

[Perry]

I agree that optimism is a more warming perspective.

Interesting to see what Israel's PM has recently done. www.gov.il

(I see that item in English text, but it seems it presents in Hebrew, for some. Perhaps depends on the device?)...

[Perry]

Six months later and the mess gets ever-bigger.

The lockdown operation was a success (sort-of) but the on-life-support patient economy died.

[Perry]

Your perspective - O.K.

Now, please provide your detailed rebuttal to my assertion that the current NZ government is socio-communist in personnel, nature and actions.

Perhaps review some of the content, back here.

[Perry]

If it looks, walks and quacks like duck, well, then . . . .

And if that's you're way of by-passing a detailed response - so be it. I have used those terms consistently in posts over the years of the current socio-commie gummint's tenure.
