Title: Uncomfortable Economics – Hard policy decisions New Zealand’s politicians can no longer avoid
Author: SCHNAUER DAVID

New Zealand once ranked among the world’s most prosperous nations. Not any longer.

Why has our economic performance lagged behind countries we once outpaced? And what will it take to reverse the decline?

In Uncomfortable Economics, David Schnauer shows that New Zealand’s underperformance is not inevitable. It is the result of choices – cultural and political – that can be changed.

Looking beyond election cycles and short-term fixes, he calls for a renewed national focus on savings, housing, public debt, productivity and long-term policy discipline. He challenges both politicians and citizens to lift their sights and demand more from our economy.

Bold, readable and politically independent, Uncomfortable Economics is a call to action for anyone who cares about New Zealand’s future.
