Privatise The Profits, Socialise The Losses = Societal Harm

Today we examine how costs and risks are systematically transferred from corporations to society, thus inflating their true profit, whilst we are left to pick-up the tally. And its true across many sectors of the economy. Worse, regulators are captured thus reinforcing this inequitable trend.

Asbestos is one prime example of the capacity of corporations to make decisions that prioritise short-term profit gains while dismissing or discounting the future adverse effects on employees, customers, and the broader community.

The information contained in this show was provided by Asbestos Awareness Australia, and the full report plus full footnotes is available below.

Taxing Times For Cryptocurrency Investors!

Today we look at the declines in decentralized finance, or DeFi, and the questions relating to the tax treatment of Cryptocurrencies – relevant as we hit the end of the Australian tax year. Everybody involved in acquiring or disposing of cryptocurrency needs to keep records in relation to their cryptocurrency transactions. And The ATO has data matching facilities to check for compliance.

Today Who’s Really Calling The Housing Lending Shots?

We look at more Government Meddling in the housing market, as the First Home Deposit schemes are tweaked, again, and in New Zealand there is a fight about whether Debt to Income targets should be imposed by the Reserve Bank. And as is so often the case, politics wins at the expense of good sense.

Today’s post is supported by Ribbon Property Consultants.
