Do you mean recovering from the economic action/vandalism of Scott Morrison?.

I think there is little doubt that the Australian governments had little option but to do what they did to help Australians manage to live through the COVID pandemic. Therefore, I agree with the author's initial premise; however, the second stage of the recovery will be a balancing act in seeing us through the prolonged unemployment of many Australians, which will have to be accompanied by funding of infrastructure and building skills to grow Australian independence, while reducing steadily the debt built up from tax receipts flowing from a much higher level of exports than we presently have. Thus, government and private investment must be directed towards more productive industries, and those which have a better chance of survival in the 22nd century.

They could have saved a lot of money by not giving all those already on welfare the two lots of $750. My expenses have actually been less because I have not had to put fuel in my vehicle. One might be forgiven for thinking that there is an election in the offing.

I would appreciate an explanation as to why US Federal Reserve money injection leads to a falling US dollar, but Australian Government spending (financed by the Reserve Bank) leads to a rising Australian Dollar. Sounds contradictory

Recovery ? Will that be before the second wave of COVID-19 or after ?
With the World's debt being three times the World's GDP, Recovery might be just a little too hopeful a word to use.

Campbell Newman is the only pollie I know who had the intestinal fortitude to do that. A massive backlash from unions, universities, abc and every other sucker of the public purse saw him kicked out. No wonder so many choose useless arts degrees that give them the sick ideology and often incompetence to work in the public service.
