Why The RBA Rise Is Kindergarten Economics and Grossly Unfair

Are interest rate hikes really fixing inflation—or just shifting the pain?

In this episode, we take a hard look at the latest move by the Reserve Bank of Australia and unpack why raising rates may be a blunt, outdated response to a complex economic problem. With the cash rate climbing to 4.10% under Governor Michele Bullock, we examine who actually bears the cost—and why mortgage holders continue to carry the heaviest load.

Drawing on economic data and policy insights, we explore the real drivers of inflation in Australia, from energy prices and housing supply to government spending decisions led by Jim Chalmers and Anthony Albanese. This is a critical, no-nonsense analysis of why monetary policy alone cannot solve structurally driven inflation.

If you want a clearer, more strategic understanding of the Australian economy—and what needs to change—this episode is essential listening.
