    5.The level of government debt is a growing concern for the current Australian Treasurer who has the
    responsibility of managing the government budget. Summarise the key arguments on the debate
    around Australian government debt and deficit for the Turnbull government.
    Your summary must address the following; what is the major concern of running government
    deficits, what is the economic reasoning to have a balanced budget and when might a budget deficit/
    surplus be ok? Conclude by briefly discussing what policies you would suggest to Scott Morrison
    implements in order to balance the budget and why. The summary should be at least half a page in
    length (again, please do not write in the form of the bullet points). No need to list the reference,
    but please do not copy and paste from whatever you found on the web. We can easily detect this in
    our system! (5 marks)
