FET #78: Reddit finance discovers superannuation's failures, plus Reddit responses and a note on One Nation

from Fresh Economic Thinking · host Cameron Murray

Regular co-host Jonathan Gadir encounters a heated debate on the AusFinance subreddit about the merits of Australia’s superannuation system, something Cameron often raises. Also, we comment on the emergence of culture within subreddits and respond to some of the comments on Reddit about Cameron’s work. The rise of Pauline Hanson and One Nation becomes somehow relevant to the whole conversation too!Enjoy this chat and leave a comment with your thoughts.
