Inflation is rising again, and the reasons are much closer to home than Australians are being told. Housing costs keep climbing, power prices are surging, productivity is weak and government spending remains elevated. These aren\u2019t temporary shocks \u2014 they\u2019re structural failures, and households are paying the price. In this episode, we unpack the latest inflation data, why the Reserve Bank is running out of options, and how policy decisions on housing, energy and spending are locking in higher interest rates for longer. If you want a clear, no-spin breakdown of what\u2019s really driving inflation in Australia \u2014 and what it means for mortgage holders, renters and small businesses \u2014 this is a conversation you don\u2019t want to miss.
