A recent inquiry in Australia indicates that the public is unlikely to accept strict COVID-19 restrictions again. The report highlights a significant loss of trust in government due to past mandates and lockdowns. The inquiry, led by Robyn Kruk, found that government actions, including excessive money printing, contributed to rising inflation. Programs like Homebuilder and JobKeeper were identified as factors that increased housing prices and inflationary pressures. The report recommends establishing an Australian Centre for Disease Control to provide reliable public health information. However, concerns have been raised about the potential for this central authority to suppress dissenting views.
