Aust Govt money printing and house prices

Hi guys,

I was aware of this but when I built these charts this morning I was shocked.

How is this not being talked about or asked of politicians?

AUAHP Average House Prices (AUD) - the mean price of residential dwellings across Australia. 

AUM3 - The RBA's preferred broad money measure.

Since around 2012 Aust house prices are up 120% in fiat money AUD - when adjusted for growth in money supply (money printing) value of property is down over 10%. 

The issue is that fiat house prices are up 120% and wages are up about 40%  - why is this not being talked about? It's a tax nobody voted for, collected by eroding what you have already earned. Every other tax at least requires legislation. This is insidious.
