Weekend Wrap 27 August 2023: Insiders review, intergeneration report and Dutton attacks democracy

Ben Davison is BACK from a week off with the latest Weekend
Wrap.  Insiders discussed productivity, taxes, industrial
relations and education with most of the debates missing the
point.


Ben breaks down how the points raised on Insiders show we need
full funding for public schools, Qantas demonstrates the need for
both workplace reforms and a focus on capital productivity and
that if we want more skilled migrants following the lead of
Belize and Somalia probably isn't the solution.


The union movement is working for better job security, higher
wages and safer workplaces for all so join your union at

The intergenerational report shows a changing Australia will
continue to change but that there are some clear policy
priorities around workforce participation, supporting
superannuation and accepting higher levels of debt (which will
still be lower than most countries have now) if we want to have
the standard of living we have now.


Finally Ben discusses Dutton's latest attack on democracy. 
The sad swipe on behalf of the No case against the Australia
Electoral Commission.  Dutton continues to show himself to
be either ignorant or lazy when it comes to doing the job of
opposition leader.
