๐Ÿ’ธ "2015 we had a debt ratio of $XX billion... today itโ€™s $XXX billion." โ€” Maree Buscke referencing Bruce Cotterill's opinion piece.

How did we get here? COVID-era spending, lockdown bailouts and silence around the real economic toll. Viv Beck and Bruce Cotterill are sounding the alarm, but is anyone in Wellington listening?

Should NZ treat its finances more like a household budget?

Maree Buscke @MacBuscke and Marty Gibson @martyozone are here with Media Matters.
