The RBA is doing its job, so don’t shoot the messenger

Canberra School of Politics, Economics and Society

Research output: Contribution to Newspaper/Magazine/Bulletin › Featured article

Abstract

People love to hate the RBA at the moment. Along with unnecessarily high energy and grocery bills, mortgage repayments are ruining our prosperity. There’s no reason for this other than the Albanese government spending other people’s money. Meanwhile, the RBA is the adult in the room.

So, I am surprised that many conservatives are jumping on the RBA-hating bandwagon. This is all Labor’s fault.
