Jason Falinski on how Liberal Party can better serve Australia

A lot of ink was poured about how the liberal party could regain its election applicability. But a better way to think about it: What role can the liberal party play in the urgent question about what Australia needs to need in the coming decades?

The liberal party faces a series of “difficulty .. This is clearly a deficiency, but it may not be possible to correctly indicate the difficulties faced by the Liberalism Party without insufficient. Now there are only three seats in the Australian cities, the state sections are not as dysfunctional as aimlessly, and seemingly seemingly gets traction against some really bad governments.

And please do not mention Tasmania.

But more than ever, he needs a liberal party to succeed in Australia. The answer is not a simple change to the left or right. Instead, the liberal party – and Australia – should look up on the policies that expand the opportunity and prosperity for everyone.

After all, it’s not like Australia does so well. Our political discourse was trapped in a cycle of division fixed to the redistribution of limited resources. Expanding these resources. The housing is inappropriate– Real fees have fallen Recent levels and emissions seen in 2011 It increased a little less While we have cities, more than prices Some of the worst traffic congestion In the developed world.

The fact that we seem to be able to deal with these difficulties created a famine mentality that one group opened the other. In places where we are not talking about in parties, these are things that worry about us. This is not a political opportunity, but a serious responsibility for finding answers.

We should take a “abundance agenda ğı that even American progress, such as Ezra Klein and Derek Thompson, is impossible to ignore. Their last book– PlentyIt emphasizes the benefits of economic growth and prioritization of the opportunity for cultural wars and redistribution.

Ironically, this will return to liberal principles and values. This means to re -frame most of our discussions at the moment and to defend policies, principles and values ​​that expand the opportunity for all Australians.

There is also contrast here. The left in Australia prefers public policies based on approaches accepted in California and Western Europe. While Klein and Thompson emphasized with definite facts and a prominent contrast, Texas ate California for breakfast In all the key metrics that even Californian politicians say they care about.

Texas’ plan -Fid Touch arrangement, the small government and the low taxes rewarding risks and innovations-rewarding housing, renewable energy and real wage growth performs better than heavy intervention.

If I said that Australia followed California’s leadership over Texas very often, it would be a larger deficiency than saying that this liberal party had difficulties. Therefore, is it a surprise that our housing market is such a disaster? Our homeless ratio very highEspecially in our cities. Ours The education system continues to failOur renewable energy investment Fell in the last three years?

No one claims that we have adopted the laws of Texas. A citizen does not need to carry a secret weapon or allow the construction of care houses alongside oil refineries. However, there is a lot to say for the consequences of the state in many important fields, especially for the results of the left -handed blue situations.

The last election showed that the liberal party was not built to win an offer war for election bribes. We are not good about it, and when we deal with it, it does not end well for anyone.

It will increase productivity by 1.5% annually in order to discuss, increase access to housing and promote innovation for more intelligent private sector regulations that remove bottlenecks such as vocational licensing and project approvals.

This will only gain more votes and will not recover the reliability, but also the debate that a nation should have now.

The welfare agenda in Australia has been neglected for a long time and has a harmful effect on our wider society. Instead of discussing who to whom and how to punish them, the liberal party would be much better than working how we could serve each other best.

Through Jed Bartlet, in the words of Aaron Sorkin: “Of course, the code of our humanity is a loyal service to the non -written orders that say, ‘We will give our children better than we have taken’.”
