In it I wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Australia is now ranked amongst the least affordable nations in the world when it comes to home ownership.<\/p>\n<p>While much media and political attention is focused on the role of housing interest rates, these do not explain the very high costs of housing in Australia.<\/p>\n<p>The root cause of worsening housing affordability lies squarely at the feet of various public policy settings, identified in this discussion paper.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-157455 img-responsive\"

sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"\/>If these policy settings continue on their present path, there is no question that housing costs will continue to spiral beyond reach of many Australians.<\/p>\n<p>As this happens, dependency on rental housing will increase.<\/p>\n<p>Future generations of Australians will not be able to afford a home of their own, and will increasingly be consigned to rental housing \u2013 and rising rental costs.<\/p>\n<p>Home ownership will be in the hands of an increasingly elite group of Australians: those wealthy enough to afford a home and those who bought into the housing market before the affordability crisis reached a tipping point.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium

cheaper materials to stem the tide of ever increasing government and regulatory costs.<\/p>\n<p>The signs of a deepening crisis are now evident, and industry groups are united in voicing their concerns that present policy settings will only lead to a worsening problem.<\/p>\n<p>Failure to act now will leave future generations of young Australians a dismal legacy of housing stress \u2013 in a country which by any other assessment should boast the highest standards of home ownership and affordability.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Despite Boulevard capturing a wealth of media, industry, and political attention at the time \u2013 even being debated in Federal Parliament in the lead up to the November 2007 election which saw Kevin Rudd elected as PM \u2013 things have gotten progressively worse in the 15 years since.<\/p>\n<p>The three remedies called for back then were: to improve development assessment processes, timing, certainty, and costs; to ensure adequate supplies of developable land to meet demand, and to fund infrastructure not through up-front per lot levies which impact new housing most, but through infrastructure debt and development bonds.<\/p>\n<p>Instead, development assessment processes have become even more mired in asinine regulation, process, and uncertainty; land supply has become more constrained in the major centres where the most growth is occurring; and infrastructure levies, costs, and charges have escalated even further in the hands of state and local governments, and now also utility companies.<\/p>\n<p>Exacerbating things since 2007 have been the record levels of population growth through the record-high levels of immigration, leading to little or no growth in real wages \u2013 a situation which some industry groups are suggesting we should quickly return to after two years of Covid slowed population growth to near zero and saw real wages grow for the first time in many years.<\/p>\n<p>The long-term picture of housing affordability since the 1970s has been spectacularly demonstrated in a series of animated graphs in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.savings.com.au\/home-loans\/australian-house-prices-over-the-last-50-years-a-retrospective\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this analysis<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Demographia author Wendell Cox for giving me the heads up.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s really very good and highly recommended analysis by a contributor who goes anonymously by the name \u201cDatamentary\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Great work Datamentary.<\/p>\n<p>The bottom line of all this is that affordability is now much worse for those trying to enter the market.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-155956 img-responsive\"

have nots widens with every price increase.<\/p>\n<p>So where does this take us in, say, another ten or 15 years?<\/p>\n<p>Will the penny drop that regulations and taxes are making things worse, not better?<\/p>\n<p>Will we dial back our rate of population growth and accept the need for working- and middle-class wages to show real growth?<\/p>\n<p>I doubt it.<\/p>\n<p>If we haven\u2019t learned by now, we aren\u2019t about to.<\/p>\n<p>So, in all likelihood, those with their feet already in the market will prosper on the back of rising prices.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\"

as supply is both constrained and then taxed by policies we created and which we ought to have the wisdom and selflessness to change.<\/p>\n<p>The growing equity of the housing \u201chaves\u201d will allow them to purchase more second or even third properties \u2013 beating off aspiring new home buyers at every turn.<\/p>\n<p>Renting will normalise for a greater proportion of our population.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBuild to rent\u201d as an asset class will grow and institutionalise the concentration of housing ownership in increasingly fewer hands.<\/p>\n<p>In time, the widening of the wealth divide will reach a point where something will have to give.<\/p>\n<p>My bet is we will see inheritance taxes (death duties) on the public agenda in a bid to redistribute the concentrated wealth of property ownership.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-122687 img-responsive\"

radical change.<\/p>\n<p>This time it won\u2019t just be proposed by the usual cabal of leftist groups but will find much support amongst an increasingly large proportion of our society with little prospect of getting ahead either through wages growth or by participating in the property market.<\/p>\n<p>A wide and growing disparity in wealth and the concentration of wealth in fewer hands is \u2013 history tells us \u2013 usually fertile ground for radical, revolutionary change.<\/p>\n<p>The non-owning class may so outnumber the property-owning class that resistance could be overwhelmed.<\/p>\n<p>I hope it doesn\u2019t come to that.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-160758 img-responsive\"

800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\"\/>Inheritance taxes are in my view morally wrong, especially in a society like Australia which is supposed to embrace egalitarian values, and which until now hasn\u2019t had much of a class structure.<\/p>\n<p>But equally wrong on moral grounds is a society where those benefitting from their vested interests cheer on rising housing prices at every opportunity \u2013 ignoring the problems for younger families on working wages \u2013 and one that fails to act on the underlying causes of the problem.<\/p>\n<p>We reap as we
