Look forward to hearing the worthless mantra ~ "Bandaid on a bullet wound."

Weak as piss response by the Liberal Shadow.

Nah - band-aids on top of band-aids... nothing here that won't be sucked up in five minutes out there - thus leading to inflation...... you what is this inflation?  It is when your dullah buys less but you still have to do the same work to get it.... consider that for a few minutes and come back with your answer.

Every time your dullah is deflated by a pay rise, costs go up to cover it, and so inflation never ends...... now - which is the cart and which the horse??? HMMMMM?

Honestly, it was mostly “ leaked “ weeks ago.

Tomorrow the majority of Australians will quickly scan the briefest article to see what is in for them. Sigh. Turn to the sports and just get on with life.

The “budget “ is just a political game that the majority of people can’t care less about anymore!

A $9.3 billion surplus? Easy to achieve when you increase net debt by $52 billion.  Roll Eyes

You get the budget you deserve, when you are deluded by mainstream economists.

A third of the population own their houses mortgage free and have savings in the bank; the RBA lifting interest rates will INCREASE inflation, not reduce it.

Note: a currency-issuing government's budget is not like our household budgets  (we USE the currency, and have to earn or borrow it, unlike the nation's Treasury).

It's time for a zero interest-rate, zero tax/zero government borrowing, full employment economy with price controls and rationing if supply chains fail.
