Australia's banking system is rigged in favor of the big banks, leading to record profits for them while everyday Aussies struggle with rising interest rates and mortgage repayments. The lack of competition in the banking sector allows banks to pass on costs to borrowers without sharing the benefits with savers, resulting in a massive transfer of wealth from the average punter to bank CEOs and shareholders

@kevinrns Let’s fix it! We need to both demand higher wages AND make sure excessive inflation is discouraged by using #antiTrust laws to break up #MonopoliesAndCartels (so that there is price competition - I strongly believe this is a more ethical solution for inflation compared to excessive #InterestRateHikes ). #Unions #SupportUnions #RaiseTheWage #FightFor15 #FightFor18 #FightFor20 #RaiseTheMinimumWage #USPolitics #BreakUpMonopoliesAndCartels #FightInflation #inequality #economics
