Upward Pressure On Australian Interest Rates
The Dominion Post doesn't have a strong reputation for running good business stories on Mondays but the article carried today on the Australian economy is worth a read from both an economic and political perspective. Governments this side of the Tasman have much the same balancing act to perform. We agree that Rudd has to go ahead with his tax cut or else he will be political dog tucker.
