- Comment on Australia took its interest rate medicine – and it has poisoned our living standards | Greg Jericho 3 hours ago:
Inflation hits the most vulnerable the hardest. Their incomes and savings are eroded directly by inflation
Those who already own houses or are mainly invested in stocks are able to weather inflation long term (while being affected short term by higher interest interest rates on debt)
If inflation is still high, and unemployment not rising, in who’s interest would we lower rates?
Is it such a bad thing for home borrowers (which is who we’re really talking about) to have less disposable income while preserving the purchasing power of those who at best would like to buy, or at worst are already living paycheck to paycheck on minimum wage?
