I heard on ABC this morning that households managed to squirrel away 240 Billion dollars in the last two years, and companies likewise had savings. While the government is calling this an “economic war chest”, it remains to be seen how this translates into pent-up demand. Since the building industry is unable to absorb all of those funds I am hoping that the punters rush back into travel.
As an aside, I can drive 77kms to the airport unfettered now-a once fantasy that isn’t that delicious after all.
