I heard it was a ratio of 12 breasts to every one penis.
That's 6 women to every one male! (For you that are not math coordinated) This was from an Aussie who defected to the states. He married one of ours. Then, another Aussie defected to the states and said yeah yeah who cares. So I know if I lived in Australia I would be tapping the wildlife there. Also, there might be food, beer, and scenery there. L0L. Tap the wildlife. |

Why is Australian real estate so expensive?
They have almost as much space as Siberia, so what is the problem? |

Because we have cash and like too take it off others But seriously, hard too believe for some maybe but, Australia is the most urbanized developed country as far as I know. I think that over 80 % of our population live in the major cities and with an hour from the the coastline. So. people wanting too live there will pay the cost for what they deem a quality lifestyle. Not too many are willing too live out in the sticks, which I prefer, An average house price in Melbourne right now is about $500,000... Whereas in my hometown 70 KM from Melbourne the average is around $300,000, and that's also for usually a bigger house also. Governments and Councils have tried in the past too get people too move too regional areas but with mixed results.

How to sell a sinking ship
This is for Comrade Estreeter, because I know he'll like it
Stressing its successes won't be enough for Labor to convince voters But is this part really true? "'Most people vote for selfish reasons, nobody votes for the good of Australia,'' Gregory says. ''We vote for what's going to put the most money in our pocket at the end of the year … no one actually gives a monkey's about the 'economy'". I thought "It's the economy, stupid!". I know Australians are different, but are they so different? |

It's by no means clear if it will be to the benefit of (the whole of) "the economy". Maybe only parts of it. Maybe only those parts that may have been principal cause of the mess in the first place, i.e. allegations of corporate/banking "welfare", etc. It's pretty simplistic modelling, however, regardless of country, for Dan Gregory (@The Impossible Institute, quoted in the article) to claim that voting behaviour springs largely from personal (pocket) economy. That assumes perfect information, and ignores socialisation and other factors that have been repeatedly shown to powerfully influence electoral behaviour. He then promptly contradicts himself by suggesting it's nothing to do with policy but instead comes down to the "likeability" of the respective leaderships--so presumably not personal pocket, after all, despite having just said so? Oh right, that was just an earlier paragraph. Rhetorical devices are used in all arguments, including this one (i.e. mine). |

It was I who introduced the topic of the Cypriots, merely as one of several recent illustrations of places where people's pockets appear to count for more than their wider economy. I did so to question the assumption that "its the economy, stupid" is an accurate explanation for people's (voting) behaviour outside Australia, let alone inside. Is there evidence that supports it? |

If you want one from me, I think there are ideology-voters, economy-voters, selfish-voters, protest-voters, and non-voters. There may be others, depending where they live The economy-voters are probably the most important in main elections, because they are the biggest "swing-voters", imho - that's probably why smart people like Clinton say "It's the economy, stupid" Is there evidence? - only from polls, afaik |
