RaymondPierreL3<p>Another great article from Greg Jericho in The Guardian. One of the grwphs that caught my attention was the Household Spending in December 2024 (see article) it shows household spending catching up to the long term trend after the worst economic effects of the pandemic. It also occurs during the <a href="https://aus.social/tags/RBA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RBA</span></a> ’s heavy-handed cash rate hikes to, supposedly, ward off <a href="https://aus.social/tags/inflation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inflation</span></a> (which is in its remit). So household spending, according to the RBA is inflationary if left unchecked. Whereas we all know (because it has been reported many time by reputable economists - such as Greg, of course) that greed was the cause of <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Greedflation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Greedflation</span></a>. Prices rose undeservedly so after a fall in profits due to lockdown. That is, inflation was caused by corporations trying to recoup their putative losses and the households of <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Australia</span></a> were penalised for the lack of regulations on market profits and the insufferable tax subventions afforded the coprorate markets. </p><p>There are lessons to be learned here which will go unheeded by the electorate. Right wing govt (or centre right for that matter) is about securing profits for <a href="https://aus.social/tags/Corporations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Corporations</span></a> .
