And yes going by the previous economic boom which witnessed large scale immigration of workers - things will indeed improve. As is the case with ths majority of other countries where the emphasis atm is dealing with the pandemic and keeping the number of cases under control so health services are not overwhelmed. No difficult to understand tbf.

I'd love to move out of home and buy my own apartment or house but we're completely priced out of the market. I've a full time job with quite a good salary and yet it would be nowhere near enough to satisfy the banks deposit requirements.

And the longer this lockdown farce persists- the longer it will be this time. No in most sane nations the emphasis has moved on to re-opening and recovering. We are stuck in dithering paralysis while the economy sheds jobs and government haemorrhages cash.

Younger generations, anyone that was born after mid 1980s have for the most part has had the option of staying in this state. A fooking option not afforded to most people of previous generations. Yes there was downturn after construction bubble burst, but it seemed to afford a fair share a chance to go on almighty p**sup in Australia. Younger generations have enjoyed unknown advantages never before experienced by most people born in this state. Talk to older generations and find out how they had to travel to find a job and a life, not a fooking stag weekend or a post exam pi**up. Most people of older generations, the ones that some now want to see sacrificed to this disease, did not have access to second level education never mind fooking third level. Now almost everyone gets a shot at some third level or other. And another thing that a fair few of our older generations had to suffer was war because when they did emigrate some of them ended up in foreign armies fighting a real war. Some made the ultimate sacrifice for not alone their adopted country, but also the world as a whole. But some of the fookers today see the fact they can't go out and down the pub as the ultimate sacrifice.
