Cost of living crisis in Australia is not going to be ‘a simple solution’ 

We reached the "owning property is virtually unattainable for most" stage many years ago.

Cut immigration, charity starts at home.

Freeze the money we give to other countries, lower taxes, also make every politicians live off the average wage for a week

I have a solution. Send everyone who has screwed our country into exile.

Yes it is a simple thing to fix. Ditch the green new deal that has doubled the price of fuel…..why can’t anyone say it???

Horrible to here there are more struggling Australians

Renewable transition Poverty isn't going to help.

we contribute less than 1 percent to global emissions however we are being castrated with cost of living crisis and soaring petrol electricity and gas prices due to this government being hellbent on making us green. labor is the worst government ever.

And how did we get into this position? Nothing to do with a careless Labor government spending money on a senseless race dividing referendum, handing out millions of unaccountable dollars to minority groups in this country, squandering money on preposterous renewable energy projects, needless overseas travel costs, foreign wars, funding UNWRA, WHO and other non elected foreign organisations..and so the list goes on. All driving up inflation and interest rates. Labor have always managed to stuff up the economy. This time they are scuttling the country in a push to have full control over our lives. Many still remain oblivious to Labor's dark agenda.

Very simple... go back to oil, gas and coal, you can thank me later....

Solution - max 10% personal income tax , 0% business tax, dental included in medicare, free education until Uni

Nah just give another 100 million to Ukraine

Its quiet simple really. When voting, vote for the lesser of two evils, that being the LNP. We had more money in our pockets before the slob of a PM we now have. Labor will always cost you more.

Same in the US, which begs the question: Who is calling the shots for all this?

Cut all fuel taxes by 50%, stop all funding to renewables and builds some coal fired power stations (nuclear is other option) and cut all immigration to 10,000 per year for 10 years.. would be a good start.

Well not while government is there fleecing the people

But they've got jet skis, 2 new cars , motorbikes, Caravans and all that crap. 95 percent of the planet doesn't have all that crap. Reality is coming here

Corporate Greed has no bounds

Labor has a Long History of Failure ! Young People have No Hope, have a Look what is Happening ?

8 months ago I had $300 spare every single week that was used to entertain and save. Now on the same income that money is going on Food, fuel and bills. So I am 15 grand a year out of pocket due to inflation and cost of living. BTW I work 12 hours a day to struggle to survive. If I go backwards while working those hours I am going to go postal.

As long as the banks are making record profit and RBA getting richer that’s all it matters…

My advice cancel your gym, Netflix all subscriptions. Pay cash for everything, the shrapnel you get stick in a pot, trust me you will be surprised how much you can save in a year in coin. Great emergency fund.

STOP WASTING MONEY

STOP THE GREEN RENEWABLES DROP FUEL TAXES

All the comments... this can be fixed fast.. but we wont do it. Need a Javier Mil style reconfiguration. But it wont happen. Ill just keep working in the mines and instead of buying a house with my partner and kids, buy a catamaran and sail off. This country is useless. Take my inheritance, sell the current house and just leave.

The biggest cost is housing, other things can be ignored. Get rid of negative gearing and cgt discounts now, it's the root cause of living cost crisis

Nice word salad from the blonde. 🤣

Too many mediocre panels, planers and politicians have been discussing this issue for years and yet no concrete projects materialise. To me they seems to be enchanted by their own voices. People are sick and tired of hearing the issues repeated over years. Get some competent professionals in to solve the problems.

I would’ve just checked the oil with my eye sensor once in a while and saved myself 2.5K.

The funny thing is the commentator on the show ebviously have a good job, earn nearly a 6 digit figure and are living middle to upper class lifestyles..

‘To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all’ - Oscar Wilde

Half the size of local, state and federal governments. This is the easiest way to ease the cost of living. Governments are the biggest burden on the taxpayer.

We should be in a position where we should not have to live on credit in the first place. That just creates more debt. Feeds the greedy system that has put us all here in the first place.

Time to dump the central banking system and FIAT currency and go back to gold backed currency: NESARA GESARA, fair enough we are all responsible for allowing politicians to do what ever their corporate and global leaders tell them too but to cancel all debt to start a fresh as to not put anybody in poverty if we can help it; money is the cause of most societal problems so putting everyone on a level starting point can only help at every level of society.

Best solution remove albo the tosser, get Peter Dutton in quick...

I guess one solution is to marry someone who's really rich.

Make energy and fuel cheaper refine our own fuel open up the coal plants, start on nuclear bring back manufacturing of cars.... Those 3 things alone will make australia competitive on a manufacturing level and make aussies have a better quality of life instead of reselling land and cutting it up into smaller and smaller pieces

This great country can't even feed and shelter a population the size of a city is disgusting

Energy stupid. Fossil fuel and nuclear! Stupid spending on dumb crap doesn't help either. Dumb studies, commissions, blah, blah, blah.

It's all bullshit and people at sky don't get out at all. Restaurants are full cruise ships booked out long weekends away camping in the 120 grand van towed by the 140 grand ram I call bullshit.

Money is ponzi scheme. The more you earn the more you pay. You sell your old house thinking you made $100k but to buy another home cost the same amount if not more.

Close the borders and vote One Nation.

Actually the solution is pretty simple. Politicians just don't want to do it.

No kidding about the expenses. My vehicle broke around Easter. I coughed up $256 for a tow / breakdown. I then paid another $400 for a new alternator (installed myself). The battery had taken a beating (took out to charge at home, stuck it back in just to find it wouldn't hold charge 2 days later as I left for work [meant I had to cancel work * more money lost* ] . After this, a new battery went in $236. 3 days later I got a reminder that my rego was due (didn't even get a renewal notice) in 3 days "cha ching" , more money paid. Because I need my vehicle for work, I had no income for over a week. Add that to ever increasing rental prices and food prices (used to spend $50 / week on food. Now it is more like $100)

Let’s keep it simple. Why are potatoes a dollar a kilo? Cost of energy, Fertilizer, machinery, wages, maintenance, depreciation, insurance and transport. All this before the farmer makes any money to cover the business risk. How can the government affect the cost of these inputs? That’s the beginning of the solution.

I am a 70 year old pensioner who spends 80% of my pension goes on rent and power bill and I have very little left to buy food

The simplest way too start is to cut fuel excise by 50% for 4 years, fuel costs roll into everything. It won't fix it entirely, but it is the obvious, simplest start point.

But THEY can afford drugs

The fact we are in this state is just so embarrassing. One of the wealthiest nations in the world resources wise. Just being exploited by large multinationals selling our resources off. Imagine if we managed our resources like Norway. So sad to see Australia in this state.

Debt borrowed is passed onto our youth. Eliminate debt and negative gearing!

This Labor government is making us all so much poorer

What is Hildebrand doing on Sky, he talks over everyone and won’t shut up, I mute him

Is Sky going to upload a different video? This same story has been repeated half a dozen times

It IS SIMPLE . Massive Quantitive tightening !!!

When Robert Kiyosaki said about Stagflation a decade ago, some people accused him of a fake Guru. Welcome to reality now!

hoho I'd be 30% of Australians having no savings!?! Roxanne!

Of course there are solutions to the housing crisis, but nobody wants to forfeit their greed.. And society will be a lot worse for not addressing the issues.

If the.government brings in more immigration, then build more cities like America did. Open up more cities and people can start paying $500K for a house in a good area. We have all this land rather than the immigrants showing up in Sydney and Melbourne.

Solution starts with financial literacy. Include in school curriculum personal finance.

$1000 a year less savings won’t bother them

Cost of living crisis is due to government policy. Not how many latte's you had this week.

He got ripped with a 2.5k oil level sensor lol

There’s no simple solution to cost of living issues when it comes to the ALP.

What.....$1,000 in the Bank that the landlord or mortgage hasn't taken that yet.....😉

A salutation would be to scrap the GST everything then drops in price by 10%

Yes. Simple. Declare a state of emergency and freeze costs of certain products, and a mandatory 10% price reduction in basic essential food stuffs in supermarkets employing 25+ staff members. Declare an immediate rise to the minimum wage by 3-5% and drop the fuel excise tax. Divert funds from the solar and wind energy schemes to recommissioning coal energy plants, and legislate that whenever there is a rate rise, banks must increase the interest rate on savings accounts in full immediately, and for rate drops, banks must decrease the interest rates on loans in full immediately. Also legislate the continuation of cash and the only way to remove cash would be via referendum. Ban adverts for gambling on all services.

" Oh Magoo you've done it again "

There is only one solution .. industrialise and fix the labour cost... create de se housing appartments

Simple solution.. developed countries had implemented in history. Richer donate their money for the needy people. (Nature law, they will get more, and they will not become poor), or government recover from richi rich. Everyone had survived after wwII Then why not now Australia and Australian has potential, only looking for great leader who can assure that people love Australia.

What crisis all sports events record crowd all concerts sold out crying baby

Nevermind the cost of living what about the cost of being a grandpa?

The Liberal / National Party and it's atomic structure. One proton (Angus Fraser) One electron (Astro boy aka Dutton) One Neutron (Sussan Ley aka no power) and 97 Moron's......lololol That's it. Oh and 1 Trillion dollar debt

The older generations have completely failed the young. They are the ones who should bare 100% of the blame.

Another stimulus cheque for hard workers to stimulate us.

When I see how most people spend their money I'm not at all surprised they're always broke. Most don't shop around when bying things or even doing food shopping, and waste money on things they could do themselves just because they're being lazy. Terminal consumers, in other words. Fact is in most other countries people have a lot less to work with and they still manage just fine. Aussies can as well. It's not so much a cost of living cricis as it is bad spending practice crisis. Live below your means. Always below, not beyond. Then you will soon find yourself not only having money but actually able to do things like travel or get that car repair you've needed for the last six months.

Aussies love to spend ... hello, the party is OVER !!!

There’s absolutely a simple solution to the cost of living crisis ⚰🪦☠

Stop human imports , reduce government waste, reduce the number oftaxes and reduce the amount of some.taxe.x

Mate, CBA’s head of Australian economics, Gareth Aird, said on Tuesday that not only were further rate rises now a “near‑term risk”, but any cuts will also come slower than previously expected. Most of the expected cuts will likely be pushed back to 2025, he said. He explained that strong population growth, driven by net overseas immigration, has put pressure on the Consumer Price Index. “Most notably the housing‑related components,” Mr Aird wrote. “As a result, demand is stronger and so inflation is falling less quickly than otherwise.” Meaning immigration is the problem. We're inheriting THEIR problems!

That’s what happens when every dollar is taxed about a hundred times from every single angle
