  1. The real issue is we need qualified people in all levels of government not just these lawyer degree leaders🤦🏻🤦🏻
    Replace and put only qualified people can be on the rba etc reforms

    But as if that would ever pass

  2. Australian decline: That's what you get when you have an economy where the majority of investment go into non productive enterprises and cafes being among the biggest industries driving growth.

    In combination with rising corruption, we're fucked.

  3. Hey Moistcritical (Charlie) talked about staying indoors and streaming during the hurricane tomorrow. All the news channels litterally say to leave DO NOT stay indoors. Its the biggest storm on earth now! If somehow mudahar or someone else can get in touch with him and tell him to leave it would be much appreciated.

  4. The govt (ie: the people we elected) already has the power to direct the RBA how to lend money, what sectors to support etc. But they choose not to – and the current govt wants to water down the existing powers of the elected lot (parliament) to tell the unelected lot (RBA) what to do. We don't need reform as much as pollies that actually act for the majority of citizens.
    Rate drops? What is that going to fix? People borrowing too much? Housing prices too high? nah, none of the above.

  5. No easy way to get out of the housing bubble we are in. Record levels of migration didnt start this ponzi but has kept it going longer than it would have. Our leaders have sold this countries future out.

  6. Are you forgetting we were late to rise our rate and our inflation has remained stickier than my other similar countries? Giving the government any influence over the RBA could be a catastrophe, policy would be set based on getting votes not controlling inflation. If they had it their way they would have a few cuts before the next election to gain votes regardless of sound economic policy. Labor have been at odds with the fight against inflation actively giving out subsidies and as you said, extra government spending.

  7. GDP growth is only positive because of immigration. That's why our GDP per capita has fallen for the last 5 quarters…our GDP is actually falling or close to it. It is the only time this has occurred since records were kept in 1973. GDP per capita is a far better indication of living standards than just movements in GDP.

  8. Usually on point mate, but totally missed the board on this one. RBA is only doing what’s legislated under their mandate of both inflation and unemployment. Current inflation is still tracking high once you remove labor’s sugar hits to power bills and rent assistance.

    The real problem lies with the feb refusing to take any action at all on inflation. Ie logical levels of immigration, energy sector reforms like a gas reserve and tax base reforms. RBA isn’t the issue the fed are just scape goating.

  9. im glad our way of fixing inflation is to fill the banks pockets. such a good way to fix it , tax us more or something that's going to go back into improving the county.
