  • Controlling the natural resources a country and leasing it out it private companies is pretty standard practice in most non corrupt countries. Norway probably differs in that they capture more of the economic rent in part due to a more efficient tax and a share of public ownership.

  • Typically it's pretty low risk in comparison to other loans which is why home loans are relatively low but there's a risk that both the property value declines and the outstanding loan and selling costs is more than property value.

  • No one is actually burying trees. What happens is that after the contract ends they can just cut down the trees, release the carbon and start again.

    I do agree with better regulation but forrestry ones should just go.

  • paid a buddy of mine to plant trees.

    It's actually worse than that they are paying people to not cut down trees. It's the same logic when my GF says she saved $200 because the dress was half price.

  • The one good thing about these policies is they are bypassing a lot of council regulations to increase supply but the "affordable" rentals are probably pretty marginal benefit and it's likely just low income kids who's parents are supporting them.

  • I had that initial suspicion but I think they can still change however they can't change to a course that doesn't meat the condition of the visa. The intention is to allow easy immigration for those studying courses like Engineering but not a Tafe course

    At the end of the day it's just money for the universities but at least if we are having that system we might as well bring in people funding the education sector and not just those wanting a cheap work visa.
