We need to look at local government development charges, we need to look at state government taxes, but the last thing we need is to resort to cheap language which is designed to scare people and to create a situation that is worse than the situation that is facing some young Australians. I would say to the Leader of the Opposition that a true housing crisis in this country is when there is a sustained fall in the value of our homes and in house prices. For the Leader of the Opposition to use careless language is only aggravating rather than helping the situation.
