That seems a quite less then I would have guessed, that is averaging a three bedroom inner city house per MP, average age of a MP is 51, which is most if not all of the way through a 30 year loan. You sure that total is accurate?
Yeah pretty sure. But it doesn't count wives who most politicians put at least one property in their name.

Without context that is neither a good or bad thing. If that wealth was corruptly gained then not good. If a lot if that is through hard work then no issue.

We should be striving to have bright sparks and successful people leading our states and nation. Would 150 people earning minimum wage, missing rent payments and barely got past year 12 be the nucleus of a good government?

The problem is the USA elected officials often are bought off by lobby groups. No doubt to some extent that happens here but no issues with people who have been successful seeking public office.

Look at my least favourite politician. Mr Andrews. Is it any wonder he is clueless. After graduating university (with a bloody arts degree) he worked inside the ALP. His only job has been inside the political party he serves. He’s never gone out and worked in the community in any shape or form. Little wonder he’s callously locked down business all last year, has no clue what they go through to stay open.
Yep for sure. He doesn't give a f**k, he's never had a job.
But people love to point the finger at America.
Look at Clive Palmer.
People have this weird idea that Labor are Union guys who've worked real jobs, and Libs are full of people who've made it on their own starting a successful business.
Not really. Most come from generational wealth.
