Western Australia is one of the most resource-rich places in the world, but are we using that wealth to build the future? In this episode, Dev Singh speaks with Jonathan about WA’s economy, state debt, mining royalties, sovereign wealth, payroll tax, small business pressure, housing supply, energy, uranium, nuclear power, data centres, and the future of the Pilbara. Jonathan argues that Western Australia does not have a lack of capital. The real issue is how that capital is allocated. He shares his case for a WA sovereign wealth fund, using gold and gas royalties to build long-term wealth while reducing payroll tax and supporting small business growth. The conversation also explores why housing should be treated like a wartime problem, whether government should intervene in land supply, how regional towns could grow, and why cheap and abundant energy is central to WA’s future. They also discuss Parliament, citizen oversight, One Nation, the decline of the Liberal Party, community independents, and the possibility of a new centrist political movement focused on free enterprise, individual liberty, young people, housing, energy, and WA’s next 200 years. This is a big conversation about Western Australia’s future, from sovereign wealth and small business to green iron, ammonia, carbon capture, uranium, and the Pilbara’s role in the next industrial revolution. Key topics in this episode: WA economy, sovereign wealth fund, mining royalties, payroll tax, small business, housing crisis, land supply, regional development, nuclear energy, uranium, data centres, AI infrastructure, domestic gas, green iron, ammonia fuel, carbon capture, WA Parliament, One Nation, Liberal Party, political reform, and the future of Western Australia.
