To be honest things are looking too bleak at the moment. Life is already hard when we consider everything is based on rent seeking culture and huge relative taxes to poor people. To add more I guess too many people aren't motivated to do laborious job when they can easily earn money by learning some html/css in computer for 1 years. My friend who is completed bachelor in physics is now doing computer jobs here. I think we need some economic reform otherwise it is going to be harsh. Just printing money as much as we want is not a solution. Update: Grammar

Could it be more cost of living and less huge taxes? Income tax in Australia is nothing up to AU$18,200, but house pricing is remarkably high. I think it will all come to a head soon enough, and housing affordability is just about the first thing I'd be tackling.

  Taxing income, instead of land, is already rent seeking

  What about the most regressive tax scheme there, VAT, and sales tax in the US?

It sounds you are generally venting when the specific topic was price of food. I don't understand what labour shortage of frontend developers has to do with that.
