Ian, I guess another issue is there are pinch points for shipping around the world.
We saw this when a massive ship got stuck in the Suez Canal a few years ago.
If this toll occurred...
Would there be a signal for other parts of the world to go, hold on, we've got a narrow shipping lane and a massive defence force as well?
I think that's more profitable than the route between us and Antarctica.
But now, look, to move on, we were chatting with Gareth Hutchins on the pod yesterday about the fascinating new research from the Centre for Policy Development, CPD.
Now, it suggests a gap between productivity growth and the typical workers' pay.
Now, Ian, you've tackled the productivity conversation from another angle in your piece this morning that people can read on the ABC website.
What is one of the factors behind sluggish Australian productivity that we might not have thought of?
Which would be inert objects that we live in.
Well, let's go back to that period because I was just out of primary school.

That's what they were lending for.

I mean, we've talked about this before.
Some of the intention of the capital gains discount was to pump more money into the stock market.
