The whole world seems to be in love with debt and deficit, including Australia and of course Queensland. But does it matter? Steve Hamilton was born and bred in Buderim on the Sunshine Coast, but these days he is Assistant Professor of Economics at The George Washington University in Washington, DC. He can live with the deficit (and explains why), puts the boot into Modern Monetary Theory and gives his roadmap of how Queensland can recover from the COVID-19 crisis. ABC Political Reporter Steph Zillman laments the mind-numbing repetition of hi-viz announcements and Matt Wordsworth drops a bomb.
