I keep coming back to this photo, it says so much of where we are now. The men with 30-40 years experience in so many jobs in Sydney sold their homes for money they couldn't believe, bought in the regions, invested for dividends, watch the money pile up and wait for another slump to invest again. Hundreds of thousands are doing that.

I hear comments like "Why would you live in Sydney?", "Why would you want to live in Sydney?"

So young women fill the gap, until they find a man who can afford her, marry, quit to raise a couple of kids. Yes, she passed her test and got her certificate, but the decades of experience in so many jobs is suffering. Young men have to get off silly computer games, stop doing degrees that never lead to a career ('gender studies') and do the work. What are governments doing about it? In Sydney they are closing the TAFE colleges, so young men can't do the work, and importing people whose qualifications, from what I hear, are dubious at best. This won't end well.
