Corrected : "Income inequality has been trending up in Australia since the 1990's. The LNP's policy platform has been a major contributor to that increase." Thanks An economic rationalist supports "an economic policy based on the supposed efficiency of market forces, characterized by minimal government intervention, tax cuts, privatization, and deregulation of labour markets." I note your personal definition but it doesn't preclude any the above. Given you regard improving financial illiteracy as the cure for inequality, I already had you in that camp. I'd say the cure for economic rationalism is empathy. Negative gearing, CGT and imputation reforms? These are all necessary reforms proposed by Labor "needed for the benefit of the country's citizens; things like education, health care, security, welfare, justice, infrastructure, investment." We have a distinct choice which future we want. The national interest or more of the same.
