Joe Hockey’s speech on the end of the age of entitlement (a decade later) at the IEA last night has been featured in The Monthly.

The article read:

“Hockey said that politicians these days were too afraid of making hard decisions and are shunning cuts to spending in order to stay popular with voters. 

“‘That sense of entitlement, that you can give people everything they want, is a cancer in our community’ he said, arguing that societies needed to curb entitlement culture in order to make life sustainable.”
