Last week the New Zealand Government, for the first time in my life, moved into the black with no net debt. David Farrar (naturally) thinks Ruth Richardson should take the majority of the credit for this achievement.
It will be interesting to see where we go from here. Will we continue to strive into the black, stay about the same, or wait for a recession or conservative govt (or both) to take us back into the red? How will history see this moment and great opportunity before us?
