Reasons To Disagree

If we all save more, eg like Kiwisaver, and don't get laden with debt through personal purchases and easy loans, then we will be able to fund our own debt more without depending on overseas countries. If everyone acts more prudently, then higher interest will be less of an issue than inflation. And easy credit won't be adding to inflation, thus keeping interest rates down... Make kiwisaver compulsory i say.

Disagree - High intrest rates are a contributor to high inflation. Both are damaging our country.
