💰 Is this budget economically or politically driven?
🏆 Who were the winners & losers?
💸 The drastic spending decisions made by the government (and the resulting deficit)
📈 The secondary inflation wave on the horizon
❓ The #1 big surprise missing from this budget
🏠 Why we will NOT reach the goal of 1.2M new dwellings
 🔄 What would it take to see positive political reforms?   

As Evan says, “Subsidies are not a magic bullet through fixed inflation.”   

To understand this year’s budget and what it means for you, tune in now folks 😊
