  13. A $3.4b collapse exposes the mess of our housing industry
    By Alan Kohler

    The collapse of Bathla is a disaster for the national housing supply and affordability project: its now-stalled pipeline of 14,000 apartments represents about 18.5 per cent of new housing stock to be built in NSW this year.

  17. As rising inequality demands reform, business is 'circling the wagons'
    By Alan Kohler

    Business used the collapse of unions to suppress wages and oligopoly power to increase prices. Expecting it now — using AI — to fix declining productivity, rising inequality, generational anger and political polarisation is fanciful.

  21. Climate change and corruption are also driving up interest rates
    By Alan Kohler

    Typically, bond rates rise when an economy is doing well and inflation appears to be moving up. But something much deeper and more structural is currently going on.

  30. Totally agree with #alankohler that we should have government run #childcare centres; get rid of the subsidy to pay for it.

    How good would it be to have one drop off at your local state school?

    That was great! Thanks for the recommendation. Alan Kohler is a national treasure & Justin Wolfers worth listening to; I especially liked his arguments on immigration = innovation (child of 2 immigrants myself) & his positive admiration of Australia. It really is past time to lose, & to stop acting out on that cultural cringe!

    The frightening thing was his costing of the US Presidency at ~$2b and profitable at that price - since est. that Thump made ~$8b last year (in bribes & corruption, not trades, which are chickenshit by comparison - such a small man). In Australia we need to tighten up the money flow potentials for that to happen here. No one - person or group - should be able to buy a Presidency, PM-ship or Premier-ship.
