"... the very success of globalisation, the very success of free market capitalism, in creating global wealth - transferring jobs from rich countries to poor countries quite often ..."
#MatthewHooten, 2026
This is either ignorance or propaganda. What corporate-driven globalisation did was *move* wealth, not create it. Mainly from working people to the 1%; inequality and the billionaire population have both increased rapidly since the 1980s.

This Is What Economic Failure Looks Like - The Bradbury Group | iHeart
The Bradbury Group is back for 2026! This week, Bomber and his All Star panel tear into the gap between government promises and grim reality, skewering the βgrowth, growth, growthβ mantra as Kiwis face rising debt, unemployment and a cost-of-living squeeze. They debate economic misfires, anti-immigrant politics and NZ Firstβs surge, migrant worker exploitation, and whether unions are the real fix. Climate denial gets roasted, Trumpβs global chaos dissected, and Election 2026 looms - served with sharp humour, unapologetic opinions, and a panel always one comment away from breaching standards.Powered by Waatea News.
