あらすじ・解説
We interview noted Australian liberal economist Dr Alan Moran about his recent piece in The Spectator regarding the unprecedented demographic decline Australia and other nations are experiencing.
We discuss amongst other things:
- Causes of this decline and possible carrot and stick solutions
- What the true economic costs of raising kids is and how this should be compensated
- Why treasury forecasts with population have been so wrong and whether economics has treated demographics seriously enough
- The problems of baby bust happening at the same time as mass immigration
- Whether neoliberalism is in part responsible for the decline and whether current policy setting need to be readjusted
- What a Trump victory means for trade and liberalism generally
