It is now nearly six months since the Treasurer set out to dazzle us all with his essay in the Monthly. He wanted us all to know how clever he is—he quotes Greek philosophers; he reads weighty books like Jared Diamond's Upheaval; he name-checks cool lefty economists like Mariana Mazzucato! Most of all, the Treasurer wanted us to know that he had big plans. No rearranging the sock drawer for him. The Treasurer's to-do list includes: 'redefining and reforming our economy and institutions'; 'reimagining and redesigning markets'; 'renewing and restructuring' of 'the way our markets allocate and arrange capital'; and 'creating a new, sustainable finance architecture'.
