Synopsis
Wayne Swan (Treasurer of Australia from 2007 to 2013) here examines the fracturing of the Australian nation occurring along geographic lines. The book is about the distribution of poverty and inequality in Australia – the disappearance of the 'fair go' and the policies required to restore justice and equality in Australia. Can Australia afford to develop a 'postcode apartheid' which will undermine prosperity and security?
