Pricing out deflationary forces, only adds to more inflation until something breaks, and the currency will have to be the fall guy. I've got some clients from AU and they're all too happy to outsource to me in South Africa despite the time difference just to save a back and remain competitive
Here is a taste of the rental crisis #AUStriches are facing.
Aus used to have a ton of backpackers come through on working holiday visas. They would work in cafes and pubs and work manual labour jobs; and have to spend time out in the regions typically doing farm work for a second year on their visa.
Now these people can’t get anywhere to live when they come here, there are not enough houses available and the prices are sky high already. We will lose access to this cheap labour soon enough which will mean more Indian students and Asians to plug those gaps as only they are willing to live 10 to a house and make peanuts.
None of this is sustainable, it won’t take much for it all to crumble. https://v.nostr.build/vqy7.mp4 nostr:note1hyunwlz08l3eufl5ae2d0ng2epzjku2lrhxys6kyunr6zjscdddskv76v8

Expect to see more of this:
