26 million people and 3 levels of government.

There's one way to save some coin right there.

Instead of big biz tax cuts, get some serious capital investment and r and d grants happening for small biz to innovate. Not done stupid allowance that gets spent on a new truck or car.

The whole notion that business generates jobs is a myth. They hire because they need to. Given the option, they would automate 9 times out of 10. When income drops, people are the most dispensable and easiest way to cut costs.
R&d generates ideas that are sold to overseas interests and women's surfboards. of course businesses only employ people they need. why would a profit driven entity employ people they didn't need?

And therein lies the problem.

How about we stop it going overseas?

The reason it does is because business is myopic and will only invest if there is a profit.

Profit driven us also the problem. It's all about the bottom line.

If you think greed is a good thing, then bully for you.

Greed is not a good thing. But it is a thing. You can't make it go away by saying its bad.
Sharing is not all wonderful either.
If you think everyone should share, well sharing our wealth with the billions of poorer people in the rest of the world is not going to put you in a happy place either.
I'm interested in your plan for how you think it should all work.

There is a single paddock shared by four farmers.
If they put 12 cows on the paddock each cow will produce 8 litres of milk for the farmer to sell.
If they put 16 cows on the paddock each cow will produce 4 litres of milk for the farmer to sell.
If they put 13 cows each cow will produce 7 litres 14 -6 15-5

The farmers start with 3 cows each, but every month a man travels to town with a cow to sell if someone wants to buy it.
What happens?

Sad!

It's more about distribution. I went to see Thomas Picketty speak recently, and it's never been a great thing wealth gap. Eventually you will end up with a revolution of some type if you keep some further from having enough. Not every one wants Reinhardt money but most want enough to get by. In a global economy where jobs are disappearing the financial system will need radical overhauling and some form of general socialism will need to be bought in. Imagine a world of bored unemployed people with not enough to get by. At the moment the real issue is with wealthy corporations and individuals not paying any taxes but expecting the poor to pay their way. Australian socialism was always a pretty good model and not based on oppression and ideology, it just worked because most had enough to get by and the rich were still rich but paid their way.

One farmer ends up eventually owning all the cows and then controls the price of milk!

What is interesting is your inferred notion of wealth and happiness. I have been raised in a different culture, which is not communist but communal. I hail from a very remote part of Fiji. As such I have family who have lived 60 years and never earned a dollar in their life, never been through a westernised educational system, never driven a car, nor owned a mobile phone or a computer. They are happy, healthy, eat all their favorite foods, watch movies, drink too much, fish and farm for large sections of the day, are surrounded by family, respected by the community and experience all the emotional highs and lows that life throws at you. They are a lot less insulated against things like cyclones, droughts, mosquito borne diseases, coral bleaching, rising sea levels and bad government. But almost totally insulated against the price of oil, unemployment, the cost of education, the quality of the internet connection, etc.

If you ask them if they are happier than your typical Australian they will say they cannot possibly be happier than someone who has more options and choices at their doorstep. But who's to say?
