You know when a new leader or government has no idea of what to do when they start organizing a summit as soon as they get voted in

What's the bet the libbos won't touch negative gearing no matter how many people at the talk-fest tell them that it needs to go
will your life change if and when negative gearing get abolished.. it seem to weigh heavily on your wish list....
I am sure you will personally benefit.......yes!
are you just jealous that some actually spend their money wisely and reap a benefit that those who do not invest wisely miss out on???>... or maybe you dont rent out your investment property and therefore hate anyone who does.... rent out.

as it is I dont SMOKE...but I realise I contribute to those who use the system for treating a disease that smoking has caused!!!!.
I also pay a levy for fire on my household insurance to pay for the bludgers that dont have insurance....at all.. but still get the firebrigade in times of need..
do I reckon everyone who lives even in a tent should pay for it YES I DO...they should all pay for the roof over their heads...even if they only rent it...its their head thats being covered....well makes sense to me...
let those who live in rented homes pay their share of the rates water and insurance.... that way the owner doesnt have to pay extra on his/her insurance or loan because their place is rented...alls fair in love and war..
then they wont benefit from neg.gear..

and we can all move on.
everyman paying his fair share..
Cods, tenants already pay the rates and land tax on the residences they rent. Not insurance—it is not their asset.
Tax exemptions, also known as tax expenditures, are approaching and will soon surpass $50Bn just for super. You think that is sustainable? Superannuation, Negative Gearing, Capital Gains Tax exemption, the Fringe Benefits Tax that the Libs made looser in 2013, the seventy millionaires that pay no tax, the foreign companies that use dodgy accounting like cost shifting to pay no tax on revenue earned in Australia?
You seriously think all that can keep going in while pensions are cut, the GST is doubled, people priced out of seeing their doctor and so on? No freaking way!
