	Description:		On the show this week: Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has announced the biggest change in federal-state relations in almost three quarters of a century. The Government is proposing states raise their own income tax to cover the costs of health and education, instead of relying on federal funding. Opposition Leader Bill Shorten, calls it "double taxation" and unfair. So is this the tax reform the Government promised?

We also look abroad with China posting its lowest yearly growth rate since 2001 and The International Monetary Fund predicting an even greater slowdown in the next two years. Is Australia ready for the economic impact? We ask the experts.
