Post subject: RBA Rate RiseReply with quote

Of all the times this is when it should not happen. Everything has gone up in price, Gas, Electricty & petrol and food and they say we have more money and are specing more. What a joke. The Rate rise will do nothing but put a few hundred thousand out on to the street.

Twas funny to see the Rudd government pleading with the banks a few weeks ago.

Shows where the power in society really lies.

I don't think there was ever any doubt that the banks run the world

Deregulating the banking industry was a licence to print money.

All those with investment properties are set to be screwed as they pay a higher rate. With another 300000 people set to enter the rental market all is gloomy for some.

Wonder how many people will just associate new Labor federal government and interest rate rises without actually looking at the fact that they haven't done anything since being elected, let alone anything to cause inflation.

But surely many of the 300000 entering the rental market will be renting the properties owned by those investors who, in turn, will probably be able to charge higher rents due to the increased demand.

Fair enough Member, I was obviously wrong. It's all Krudds fault. Wink

Amazing isn't it? Howard and Costello banged on about "Beazley's black hole" for the first two terms of the Howard Government but Rudd is supposed to be responsible for inflation after two months in Government!

Turnbull has no where to go and looked a goose on the 7.30 report.

Pica, if the people have no money now and they lose thier houses the chances are high they will be servicing their debts and will still have no money for medium priced rent where many have investment properties. Low income housing is in it's largest shortage in 30 years so they will have no where to go.

Can anyone else hear the capitalist train derailing? (again)

I wonder how many lives and jobs it will cost to the system back on track this time.
