A short summary provided by the submitter

Interest rates are a very blunt instrument for dealing with inflation. I propose that the level of compulsory superannuation be legislated to float between 10% and 25%. The RBA would be given the ability to mandate the percentage of wages paid into super within this band. This would give the RBA a new lever with a very broad impact that would reduce the spending power of all workers not just those with borrowings.
