Interest is being added to outstanding loans are elevated levels, but that is falling. Looks like we are going to get another cycle of growth fuelled by expanding private and Govt debt. Go us! Hell, we should see rising house prices in 2026! In time for the election! Vote Blue! We're mugs [Ends]

Why is it "frankly disgusting" for parents and schools to stand up for what THEY believe is right for their tamariki? Why is the PM allowing his MPs to spread anti-worker, anti-Te Tiriti disinformation on social media?

But, we crushed inflation, right? Nah, costs and forecast costs still going up and inflation turned out to be a global thing - we were along for the ride. Soooo... merciless punishment of mortgagors and businesses made very little difference to the price of stuff? Yeah, sorry. No harm done. [2/n]

Aggressively swinging interest rates up and down like a macho, medieval monetarist, makes little difference to inflation during a global price shock, but it sure smashes a private debt-heavy, consumer economy. Take billions off spenders, add billions to business costs, watch economy go poop. (2/n)
