FET #4: Gas supply crisis and corruption
Cameron Murray is famous for questioning sacred cows and conventional wisdoms of both left and right. We chat about Cameron's latest Twitter battle and then delve into a controversy. Wide-ranging analysis - no topic out of bounds - inequality, regulation, housing, superannuation, lockdowns, tax, war, the meaning of life.
Wouldn’t it be nice if the government didn’t give away our resources for nothing to their big business friends? Cameron weighs in on the gas supply crisis as an example of a ‘game of mates’. We talk more broadly about corruption in poor countries compared to rich countries. In the Barney of the Week, Cameron says ‘meh’ to the excitement over getting rid of stamp duty.

FET #4: Gas supply crisis and corruption
Only recently started listening to these podcasts. They are interesting; I'm enjoying them and learning new "stuff". I especially like when the positions you take agree with my own!! Our politicians could do worse than listen as well.
