Show Notes
We pick the brains of Brendan Coates of the Grattan Institute. Brendan’s research focuses on tax reform, economic & budget policy, retirement incomes & superannuation, housing, transport infrastructure & cities. He works in a think tank with a bunch of clever people with access to all manner of research that allows them to tackle the big questions & problems facing us as a nation.
Here’s a preview:
- Home ownership crisis - why so many young & poor simply can’t afford their own home.
- Why is the government & our politicians afraid to make big reforms to Negative Gearing, Land Tax & Stamp Duty?
- Home Buyer Saver Scheme - is it all it’s cracked up to be?
- Who’s to blame for the lack of housing built to meet the demand of homeowners?
- Australia’s aging population - should inheritance tax be modified?
- Super increases - will higher super contributions exacerbate the problems of an ageing population?
- Why Australia’s housing stress will mean a rise of homelessness.
- What can be done for everyday Australians to assist housing affordability?
This is such a great episode, packed with so many insights, we hope you enjoy listening!
