The headline figure sounds bad, but how much of that measured wealth is in companies and investments that employ people etc, and I doubt that wealth will be locked up forever. The 3rd generation will squander it

Also, despite this wealth disparity, our standard of living gets better and better.

Which planet are you living on....???

Have your earnings kept pace with the cost of living...???

Yes. I find the cost of living, particularly food incredibly cheap.

True , cost of power could be a problem for some But fresh vegis chicken, meat is not over the top

years ago everyone grew their own veggies thought nothing of it kept chooks... swapped with the neighbours......what happened????>.

wealth maybe... Grin

When I was a kid getting a bbq choock for dinner was rare and a bit of a treat.

Today in Harris Farm they had a flash sale to match coles, free range large bbq choocks for $5

I bought 2 and stripped them down and froze them.

People can still do that today. Of course it may not be in he CBD.

It's hilarious. The conservatives will attack people on the dole, gays, refugees, aboriginals etc, indeed anybody 'different' or in a less powerful position, but won't countenance any action on the increasing inequality in australia.

Hypocrites! Does your religion really condone your behaviour??
And bullies! You only pick fights with the powerless, and obsequious and sycophantic to the powerful. How inspiring your cowardice and ethics are! NOT.

Homo still gets goat meat from his neighbour, so he's doing alright I suppose.
