Inflation is down so why do we keep going on about the price of eggs?
Manage episode 480027243 series 121490
Australia’s inflation rate is now firmly in the RBA’s target band, but groceries, rent, and daily essentials still feel painfully expensive. Why is there a disconnect between the data and what we think is our lived reality?
The Opposition leader, Peter Dutton, says he wants to cut Australia’s permanent migration program. Is such a cut possible? And could it stem the total net overseas migration?
And, costings. We spend $9 million a year on the Parliamentary Budget Office. Shouldn't we get its insights before we vote?
Guests:
Megan Flamer - Innovation specialist with Monash Business School
Brendan Coates - Housing and Economic Security Program director at the Grattan Institute
