Australia is ruled by false ideas. That is why things are not working. That is why our society is disintegrating and the land is degrading. Neoliberalism has been an economic failure and a social disaster. Our rulers are stuck in colonial mentalities and propelling us towards a catastrophic war. The climate is rapidly worsening. A New Australia dissects fallacies and signposts a better path: a coherent web of well-based ideas that can benefit everyone, repair society and regenerate the land. People are innately social. Absent irrational fear, people can get along. Markets and money can be harnessed for good. The world is abundant. ... We can live not just in hope, but in the knowledge we are making the world better. We, the people, have the power. We can live fulfilling lives and give our grandchildren a better go at surviving and thriving into the indefinite future.
