Australia Entitlements Government And Culture Paternalism

Andrew Robb examines the gradual shift towards a culture of entitlement in Australia that is eroding freedom and individual responsibility and encouraging regulatory overreach. He looks at the effects of this culture on both the country’s economy and individual lives. Robb describes his efforts as a reformer to address the attitude that government knows best and talks about the great potential he sees for Australia’s future as a key economic player in Asian markets.
