We have an extremely weak leadership that leans on corporate cronyism to fill their own pockets. All while using mass immigration to paper over the cracks forming in our paper-thin economy that is formed around resources (which we are misusing and practically giving away), construction (which is feeding into a great Ponzi scheme) and education ( we now have more foreign student visas than anywhere in the world, but these people are hardly earning an education, but using the opportunity for a holiday) 😏

Why the heck is Costello a participating panelist? He was treasurer under a government that holds the record for worse economic outcomes in the past 45 years. Australia is desperate for new ideas, not old ones from someone with obvious political biases. And certainly not someone who's policies and legislation have directly contributed to the cost of living crisis we have today.

@FisherGrubb 22 часа назад
There's a concerning issue where US companies & think tanks were pushing for cheap manufacturing in China & similar countries. So, the CCP didn't direct it, just played along in a way to their benefit (tech transfer etc). Australia is under the UK's control & had to follow along also. The Abbott Government (of which Peter Costello here was a part) oversaw & denied Holden car manufacturing closing..... denied it, then....claimed it's "just a trend that everyone is following for a services economy"

@@FisherGrubb It's a weird synchronicity that just today I was reading Keating's account of this period in the O'Brien book. Keating is totally unapologetic about shifting to a service economy.

Such unions no longer focus on a good deal for workers and employers, but instead make incessant unreasonable demands until the industry collapses and is forced to move to China.

On manufacturing I disagree with Mr Costello. Yes address Tariffs, but he and those after him could have protected our manufacturing with very low energy costs. We have our own coal and gas, as well as potentially nuclear, to have the cheapest energy in the world. That, with high levels of automation would have greatly enhanced our ability to offset cheap overseas labour costs. In addition to our metal resources (Iron Ore, Bauxite, Copper etc) There is no excuse that we do not have our own modern largely automated metal refineries which, with cheap energy costs would have made us largely Heavy Industry independent. Better still, with Government incentive and financing, it could all be Australian Owned.

Advanced economy? That comment right there is the Kakistocracy problem in this country. Australia is not an advanced economy. We only have one source of economic growth and that's the domestic mortgage housing market. All we do is dig resources out of the ground and sell them off without proper return. We have no manufacturing, there is no diversity in the economy. Budget constraints only happen on the Gold standard. These people are idiots. We don't have productivity growth because we don't have a diverse economy.

Statistics suck but sometimes you really need to notice. The US spent 850 billion on military spending in '23'. Russia spend $100 billion. China spent $300 billion. The US has 750 military bases in 80 countries. Russia has 21 and China zero. A choice is made where to spend the dollars. They say the US has to maintain these bases to keep us safe. Many of us call BS on this and understand it is money going to their MIC friends. China chose to build a new mass transit system and a surveillance system used to control bad behavior as opposed to waging political warfare.

Costello's idealisation of Australia's economy is complete rubbish. The economy is massively dependent on government Defence, 'Care' and Welfare spending (Child-NDIS-Age and Gov benefits, and an expensive underwhelming military). The economy is far from sustainable or sound, and relies on high personal taxation while receiving only meagre local corporate taxes - and overseas corporates pay nothing to sell Australian resources overseas for high profits.

The blind faith in the US being able to reinvent themselves while accurate given change in all things is inevitable is limited.

Leading investment in semiconductor research & design is in China. Leading technology in many areas is now in China. The entire global south is behind China. The global south is tired of the G7 major export which is war. Average citizens in the G7 should not trust their government to save them. Go buy gold & be your own central bank. Debasement of currency is the G7's only path out of the debt trap the G7 created for themselves. Good luck everyone.

Asking us to take a roll back of government spending (services, healthcare etc) and for households to take further hardship - hardship that has been experienced and growing since 2008 - for what!? What is the actual payoff that's being suggested? The financial class, who are currently skimming the cream in our economy through massive profit growth in essential services, should take the hardship for once. For starters, disincentivise the hoarding of land so that households and small businesses have more capacity to be experimental, nimble and productive instead of wrapping up an insane amount of money in an unproductive asset such as land.

Adaptive society due to it's multi-national corporations able to not only trade in every corner of the world but to do so under the sponsorship of it's deep money markets. Further, the cultural phenomena of 'Americana' has a rugged persistence and continues to attract unlimited wannabe migrants to their shores. These and numerous other features are what the Soviet Union lacked in other words the USSR ran out of money, chips and high value cards left to play. As the Honourable Peter Costello stated 're-invention' I'd say re-purpose, re-growth, re-appear, in short to resurrect.
