Blatant media and business falsehoods about Australia’s productivity: malicious intent or stupidity? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Australia’s rabidly anti-Labor board rooms and newsrooms are bewailing the worst productivity crisis they can recall and crying “we’ll all be rooned”. Simultaneously they are basking in unprecedented economic good times, with record company profits, soaring executive salaries, and living standards at an all-time high. These would be impossible if productivity was tanking. ABC News ran a problematic interview last Monday with the CEO of the Business Council of Australia (BCA) Bran Black, who regu
Top 40 datasets showing quality of life in Australia definitely rising - despite mainstream media denials (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The shonks and liars in Australia’s mainstream newsrooms want citizens to believe the economy is struggling – the opposite of the truth. They know the cost-of-living crisis caused by the previous right-wing Coalition Government ended in mid-2023. But that is their only attack line against the incumbent Albanese Labor Government. So they lie. Day in day out, week in week out, for three years now. One mendacious statistic finance “reporters” and their tame economists use routinely is GDP per capit
Real wage increases in Australia under Anthony Albanese’s Labor government ensure living standards continue to rise (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Real wages paid to workers Downunder – that is, salaries adjusted for inflation – are now rising strongly, after years of going backwards under the previous right wing Coalition Government. The Bureau of Statistics (ABS) showed last Thursday that average weekly earnings for full-time adult workers hit a record A$2,083.70 (US$1,481.00) in May 2026. That’s up 3.67% on May last year, 8.33% above May 2024 and a thumping 13.36% higher than the A$1,838.10 earned in May 2023. These must now be adjusted
Flailing newsrooms in Australia stymied by impressive household luxury spending splurge (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The percentage of household spending Australians allocated to dining out hit an all-time high of 13.8% in the financial year ended in June. That’s up from 11.8% ten years ago, in 2015-16, and well above any year under the dismal Coalition. This adds to the evidence that Australians across all quintiles are now enjoying a remarkable upswing in living standards as the Albanese Government’s decisions on wages, pensions, benefits, tax levels, fuel prices, employment and industrial relations have tak
Truths about price rises in Australia the newsrooms and economists don’t want voters to know (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The craven hypocrites purveying economic analysis in Australia’s legacy media and online news outlets deserve the everlasting contempt of all reasonable citizens. Their malicious misrepresentations are keeping voters ignorant, fearful and angry. After one prominent online analyst maligned Australia’s economy shamelessly last week, a viewer wrote in the comments: ‘I have reached saturation point. I am just unable to process anymore of the evil today … I’d say too far to change it by humans. Reven
