Control over and the effective use of the online space has proven crucial over the past two US election cycles, with a groundswell of pro-Trump memes helping propel the candidate to victory in 2016, and unprecedented censorship of a damaging story about Hunter Biden by tech companies aiding Joe Biden in his quest for the White House in 2020. |

For years, MacroBusiness has argued that Australia’s productivity has been stifled through “capital shallowing”, which occurs when infrastructure and business investment fail to keep pace with population growth. The result is less capital per worker, rising congestion costs, lower productivity growth, and lower per capita GDP growth. The following chart shows Australia’s long-run trend per |

It comes with enormous social and economic costs and does not protect us from current threats – indeed it makes us more of a target. There are alternatives, and we can work together towards them.

Former Liberal leader David Speirs resigned from parliament today, after his house was raised by police in relation to a video published last month, not long after his resignation from the leadership. I have now published my guide for the Black by-election, which I expect to be held later this year or possibly early in 2025. The seat is held by just 2.7%, so could very well be in play. |

Former President Donald Trump has spent this week criticizing Democrats for their response to Hurricane Helene — going so far as to say party leaders aren’t interested in helping Republicans in the hardest-hit areas of southern Appalachia. During a visit to Valdosta, Georgia, he claimed without evidence that the Biden administration — and Democratic North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper — were “going out of their way to not help people in Republican areas.” |
