The Human Cost of Australia's Interest Rate Rises | Mark Bouris
What's the true impact of the RBA's recent interest rate announcement on the Australian economy and society?
Mark Bouris dissects the consequences of this decision and its ripple effect on various segments of the population.
We tackle the alarming proportion of Australia's net income going towards loan repayments, the pressure on individuals and businesses, and the question of who's really fueling inflation.
Together, we explore the delicate balancing act the Reserve Bank faces when setting interest rates, as well as the importance of empathy in politics and the need for clear, timely communication from leaders.
Mark Bouris also offers his thoughts on potential changes to the Reserve Bank's understanding of their role following their upcoming review, and what this could mean for Australians.
As we ponder the possibility of further interest rate hikes and the implications of such decisions, we also reflect on the importance of leadership that truly cares about the people as much as themselves.
