@Potstirrer111 This is simplistic.
There would be a fall in demand.

The government’s now conceded on amendments to its CGT changes.
So for those who spent weeks shouting down dissent - was the policy right before, or is it right now?
Because if the backflip was necessary, the criticism was justified.
And if the criticism wasn’t justified, the government had no reason to backflip.
I maintain the budget was flawed before and remains flawed now.
Tax increases with added complexity is not reform.
Exemptions and special rules is not reform.
Reform simplifies the system and improves productivity.
And we do need real reform.

#BREAKING Anthony Albanese’s latest pathetic backflip: weeks of pressure from small businesses and he’s gutting his own Capital Gains Tax hit, slashing the turnover threshold from $2M to $10M overnight.
Can’t decide between his socialist lies and economic reality?
This flip flopping moron is utterly incompetent and not up to the job of PM.
Australia deserves better.

Albanese’s sneaky DEATH TAX exposed.
He tried to ram through a disguised inheritance grab via Capital Gains Tax on family trusts.
Now forced to exempt testamentary trusts after the backlash.
$475 million budget black hole just to cover his deceit.
This is Labor’s war on your family’s hard earned assets – pure socialism dressed up as “fairness”
Albo lies, backflips, then hides the knife.
Totally unfit and incompetent.

It’s the media’s job to scrutinise One Nation.
Unlike the Prime Minister I welcome it.
I’m an elected representative and I should be scrutinised. One Nation is probably the most scrutinised party in the country.
What I won’t stand for is double standards and outright lies from the media.
The Guardian has been caught out purposely manipulating images to make One Nation look “sinister” and now publishing lies.
I will always engage with media in good faith, but the Guardian has proven they are completely biased and won’t provide a balanced view - resorting to lies and manipulation to “get us”.
Media has great power and with that comes great responsibility to make sure their bias doesn’t get in the way of the facts.

The Guardian Australia published a false report claiming One Nation hired a policy development officer who had defended the Hitler Youth, weeks after admitting to using photos which made Pauline Hanson appear more "sinister". skynews.com.au/business/media…

My logic here all starts with his seemingly rogue comment about Iran keeping rockets and missiles, which has freaked out many, particularly Israelis and their supporters.
I'm betting the Gulf States are really uncomfortable, like Israel is, with that statement. They're not stupid. They're also targets, like Israel is. Less, but a lot, and the IRGC are crazy bastards. Makes me think Trump made it for them.
The thing is, they didn't do their parts and aren't yet. And Trump's definitely pissed at them because they straight up didn't help during the war (so far…). They wouldn't even let us use their airspace and tried to close down our own military bases. Trump didn't like that and didn't forget. No way.
So Trump letting them feel some legitimate heat that can be resolved by accomplishing his primary goals makes a lot of basic sense.
If we remember Trump's goals and work backwards, it's actually a little easier to see how this makes sense, even the MOU with it's big carrot/big stick arrangement that basically nobody believes will stick (thus terrifying Israel but, I'll bet, also those Gulf States). So what are Trump's goals?
1) Expand Abraham Accords;
2) KSA allying formally with Israel, which was happening until October 7 disrupted it, thus restoring a pre-10/7 peace agenda;
3) Increase their overall security dependency on US and Israel, thus shifting some of their "hand" in the region to us;
4) Standard Trumpism 101: Make them active participants in their own security arrangements, just like what he's doing with the EU and Pacific countries (no more America carrying all the weight).
The MOU itself creates conditions by which Iran becomes agentic in this. If they behave (they won't), they get rewarded, which they actually want, bigly. If they misuse that (everyone expects they will), they get a well-deserved stick. Everyone in the region feels this fear and is vigilant about it. If they misbehave (they will), they bring hellfire on themselves. This breaks the strangest force in the known universe: responsibility never sticks to a Muslim who behaved badly, never.
It's very high-risk, but this is a very high-stakes game, one of the highest in decades. The fears people have are real and justified, but Trump's got them priced in, I think. He knows he holds cards (B-2s, specifically) that let him adjust later if things don't work right, and by the number of times he's said so in the last 36 hours, I think he's well aware he'll be playing those cards at least sometimes. Tough shit for Iran.
I think we need to stop freaking out and let this develop. We need to see how it cooks and how the chef does with it.
Plus, I think he just hosed JD, and that's alright too.

I'm starting to think Trump is a crazy genius again.
