Gas Prices are cool!

Agreed certainly.

The renting out in the sticks argument has been raised. But there's a counter to that. By moving further out you're subjecting yourself to a double whammy. There's the mortgage on the one hand then there's the petrol pump on the other. With petrol prices soaring and more activities in the inner metropolitan areas, your buying yourself into trouble. Petrol prices aren't going to go away so even if you make that sacrifice it's a zero sum game. Buying that house in whoop-whoop wasn't that good an idea after all.

And that turns us to the issue of dismal state of public transport in Australia. It's ironic how all these problems are so interrelated but all require a lot of pain in the short-term to gain long-term benefits.

Man, I feel like a glass half full type of guy tonight.

One thing and one thing only will fix all of that, and it's not government, it's corporation.

What that thing is is called "decentralisation".

Housing - fixed.
Childcare - fixed.
Pubic transport - fixed.
Create more jobs - fixed.
Use less fuel - fixed.
