UNLIMITED GROWTH
Kind of impossible as an economic doctrine and other musings
Housing crisis will escalate for numerous reasons:
Supply will be dwarfed by ongoing demand as immigration is increased to ‘grow the pie’ and chase ‘economic growth’ (bigger GDP numbers that don’t reflect the reality of average joe's life in poverty 10,000 years after some OG figured out basic agriculture and stick gluing)
Builders and Property Developers have suffered mass insolvencies from COVID price inflation in fixed price contracts
Meanwhile capital values have exploded
Value in holding no risk property, no value in high-risk development as seen by the 100+ collapses in the industry
No real incentive to fix the problem when most households ‘loosely’ benefit from escalating house prices
Average House earns more in capital gains with 10% movement than most professionals nowadays
No efforts from anyone in government (NZ or Aus) to fix the tax system despite this being raised in numerous IGRs.
Focus on making sure 'those within the circle' are OK and ignoring wider society, numerous advisory bodies providing advice out into the ether (no recipient or actions from it)
Next 5-10 years are complete pointless are outcomes will not reflect efforts for most people.
FIAT money + DEBT addiction is the root cause of this not w investor, x regulator, y council, or lazy Gen Z’s.
Eventually we require an economic model that does not suggest infinite (productivity) growth is possible. Think climate change, limited green metals.
Limited tech uplift remains in this long cycle with no pathways to fillings gaps or placeholders in IGRs.
Social Outcomes get worse until leaders address this.
