Ask Fear & Greed: Could the GST be used to fight inflation?
Manage episode 430284271 series 3375277
Listener Bryan asks: Instead of the reserve bank varying interest rates why not scrap that and vary GST accordingly? Yes it would be tricky to navigate initially, but once implemented would be smooth. Look at petrol prices. They go up and down all the time and no one riots. Doing this everyone is affected not just people with loans.
