Budget Wars 2023
Gâday Fearmongers,
Here is this monthâs News Fighters funded entirely by our Patreon supporters â as Iâm off getting some minor surgery and moving house, weâre mixing up the A Rational Fear podcast feed for a few weeks. Weâll be piloting a new Australian politics pod cast with a couple of funny insiders. More to come on that in the coming weeks. Meanwhile⊠here is (big booming voice) NEWS FIGHTERS!
This month on News Fighters host Dylan Behan takes an in-depth look at the 2023 âGoldilocksâ Budget. Somehow treasurer Jim Chalmers and Labor have lucked out with a once-in-15-year surplus, but can they use it to help those out in the cold while not overheating the economy with inflation? Meanwhile Peter Dutton and the coalition argue that instead of giving a tiny increase to welfare recipients, this money would be better used to fund holidays and the mining industry.Â
Once again â we wouldnât be able to do News Fighers without your support on Patreon â chip in!
Cheers
Dan Ilic
