Title: Turnbull govt gets the economy moving Post by bogarde73 on Jun 6th, 2016 at 1:42pm
AAP:
Employer demand for more staff is finally picking up pace, with the number of job advertisements spiking in May after stalling for six months. Job ads on the internet and in newspapers rose sharply, by 2.4 per cent, in May and were up 9.1 per cent for the year, figures from ANZ show. ANZ head of Australian economics Felicity Emmett says the economy is chugging along quite well and the transition to non-mining activity is gaining traction. "The rise in job ads is consistent with the strength in business conditions, which point to ongoing solid growth in the economy," she said. Ms Emmett said the strong first quarter national GDP report, released by the Australian Bureau of Statistics last week, shows that the housing and services industries are doing the heavy lifting as the mining boom fades. "These sectors are also clearly helping to support jobs growth," she said. Gross domestic product rose 1.1 per cent in the March quarter and 3.1 per cent through the year, in each case the fastest for at least three years. Ms Emmett noted that ongoing weak wage growth is likely to continue to drive solid employment gains. "But very low growth in labour costs is feeding through to very low inflation," she said. "With inflation set to stay outside the RBA's target band until at least mid-2017, we expect to see another cut in the cash rate in August to a low of 1.5 per cent." |

Wage growth is at the lowest on record. Part-time/casual jobs are becoming the norm.
For fat cats at the top of the pile, of course this is a sign of great things, and so its no surprise we see language like "the economy is chugging along quite well". For everyone else though, its just more of the same: harder and harder to make ends meet and bigger and bigger gap in inequality. |

So you just give up Gandalf? You don't look for positive news, only bad signs. We know Mr Shorten is not positive, We know he doesn't think he can win. Now there's a personality to be in charge of the economy. Malcolm Turnbull has always been a bloke who believes he can win and make things work. |

Do you care that they want to get rid of Medicare Bogarde? That they want to Americanise our health care system.. And Malcolm ain't the mover and shaker he was once purported to be. |

But I'm not giving up Boges - I'm exposing the BS of the economic elites for what it is. How could I hope to change the system without attempting to expose it? |

The LNP will restore Australia to Capitalist prosperity.
Labor and the Greenies will reduce Australia to dust. |
