We need a world where every person, family, and community thrives—not just survives. #PeopleFirstEconomics reclaims the economy as a tool for human progress, not profit-driven exploitation. This isn’t just possible—it’s necessary. 🔧🔥 #EconomicJustice #ThrivingCommunities #ReclaimTheEconomy

Democratic accountability matters:
The Treasurer has the power under the RBA Act to question the Board and recalibrate its priorities. It’s time for monetary policy to align with broader societal goals and support economic recovery, not austerity. #PeopleFirstEconomics

When progressives adopt neo-classical myths—like austerity, deficits = doom, and ‘small government’—they abandon working people. This opens the door for right-wing populists to pose as ‘defenders,’ distracting with cultural values instead of delivering economic justice. #PeopleFirstEconomics

Raising interest rates won’t fix inflation caused by profit gouging, supply shortages, or climate change. It just punishes households while leaving the real culprits untouched. We need policies that tackle root causes, not quick fixes that hurt the most vulnerable. #PeopleFirstEconomics #Inflation

PeopleFirst Economics is grounded in labour movement principles - fairness, solidarity, collective prosperity. It’s about reclaiming economic security as a right: jobs, housing, healthcare, education for all. Together, we can build a society that puts people first, not profits. #PeopleFirstEconomics
