Albo McFibberFace

 

[crocodile]

His new tax cuts help him and his mates line their own pockets. How the he'll do they help the poor people like thay are making out?
Come out and say look this benefits those battlers who are in the 120-180k pay range.

Unfortunately, in order to get a tax cut one must have paid some in the first place. Smaller earners naturally get a smaller cut.

 

[the phantom menace]

Essentially, with this slight rejig of the tax package Albo has just made Dutton and his whinge at all costs approach pretty irrelevant in the mind of most voters who'll (now) benefit from this tax cut.

 

[strider]

Everyone is gonna be better off than they are now. So no one should complain they are getting screwed. They just arent gonna be as better off as they were originally gonna be.

 

[Gronk]

Whilst Albo robs the rich and gives to the poor, the Telecrap are milking this for all it’s worth. I said yesterday that it was a time bomb planted by the coalition. Leave it as it is and it adds to inflation and does nothing to assist those burdened by the cost of living.

Tweek it and make it fair and OMG he’s a liar.

Are merkins on Struggle Street smart enough to see through this ? Probably not.

 

[hineyrulz]

Albo made the smart choice, I know I’ll be better off. Doesn’t mean he didn’t lie, but how dumb are the Libs going to look blocking something that helps 14 million people??

 

[strider]

Fact is they did lie ... they backed the original 3 stage plan. They stated they would not change it over and over. They took it into the election that they would not change it. It probably got/kept votes for them .... they did renig on what they previously said, aka lie. You cant deny it.

If this was such an awesome alternative, why didnt they propose it years ago?

I think you’re playing politics now, cos you know the answer.

How can Albo and Treasury say in an election campaign in March April 2022 what he’s going to do with Tax cuts in Jan 2024 ?

How would have YOU handled this time bomb, knowing that whatever you say, you will have the wrath of Murdoch, Costello and Stokes all over you.

They chose to do it this way. Deny changes and then drop it when they think the climate is best to handle the news. They don’t make these decisions lightly.

Translation .... yes they lied

Politics - the art of lying and getting away with it

 

[strider]

Do you reckon this was always their plan? Or did they just come up with it now? .... cos you are making out like this was it all along.

If its better for the masses ( i agree it is), then why didnt they propose it as the way to address cost of living, which was their election catch cry, going into the election?

Why did they originally agree to it and constantly back it if there was a better option?

Labor always look for fair outcomes.

They couldn’t commit to anything long range. It was $300 billion over 10 years.

More lies .... isnt this pretty much just redistributing the same pie differently? Well thats the way they have presented it.

You can admit it Gronkles, Albo is another lying Pollie just like all the rest. As I said I think it’s the smart decision and it helps me out. Go Albo!!

 

[Twizzle]

how do you know if a politician is lying ?

 

[strider]

Why did they originally back it? ..... is it not true they originally were on board? .... were they all for unfair outcomes back then?

Sometimes I think you guys struggle to read engrish. Or maybe you do and prefer the troll.

If you want a serious discussion, I'm here for it. Otherwise, you're wasting the universe's time.
