JC: 2026 and Causes for Optimism

Two articles in the business section of the Weekend Herald proved to be a good read. Both were basically unrelated in content but it was the cause for optimism that brings the two articles together. Before I delve into this though, I want to (as I do from time to time) comment on the doom and gloom pervading the political discussion on Backchat. A lot of it is in direct contradiction to the facts that are emerging in relation to the economy. As with climate change – the end is not nigh.
