Sally McManus and the ACTU want to scrap negative gearing and the capital gains tax "concession" for property investors, arguing it will fix housing affordability. But does the evidence actually stack up?
In this episode, we dive into the history of negative gearing in Australia, the real impact of CGT rules, and why blaming property investors might miss the bigger picture. From rental shortages to soaring construction costs, we unpack the policies that have shaped today's housing crisis — and what really needs to change.
Perfect for anyone interested in Australian property, housing policy, and the politics driving affordability.
