Australia is experiencing an Economics Roundtable at the moment. Wondering if anyone there is listening. Some interesting ideas in this esssay.

Australia's middle class has been shrinking for the past four decades. Unless we make fundamental changes, our children's future looks bleak.

I do like an inheritance tax. Can set it at 5million so no-one can complain without being fairly greedy. House prices slowly dropping is a great idea but taxing homes is not as people often sell their family home to move now have to buy with less. Disincentive to move.
