I get tradies will pick some work up but seriously what other industry gets so many hand outs?

Personally I wont be eligible due to the proposed income brackets, so we will continue our middle class slug to prop the industry up and not get our new deck....

I would and could but the real effect of these government handouts is that every vacant block of land has just gone up $25k and every builder's quote just increased by the same amount. Happens every time they do a first home owners or building industry thing.

It's not economic stimulus it's pork barreling and posturing. I thought if it looked good enough I might renovate my place but the numbers won't fly so I won't be bothering.

Sounds like you should never drive because one day you might have an accident.
A lot of blokes from my generation saw what happened to their fathers and friends and swore off marriage, myself included. The family law courts have a lot to answer for. I've had plenty of girlfriends but none cohabited.
