The best of both worlds.
Govts should always be willing to embrace the private sectors strength whilst ALWAYS remembering (and having the power) to do their jobs, which is act in the best interests of ALL Australians.
By strengths are you talking about the ability of the private sector to inflict self imposed compliance regimes on to their workers which kill productivity stone dead ? Or are you referring to the private sectors ability to become insolvent due to a lack of aggregate demand or indeed speculative practices gone wrong such as in the case of the GFC ?
