I think you can take his predictions, and those of every other economist, with a grain of salt.

Ask 12 economists for an opinion on something and get 13 answers.

So Dutton puts shit on an ongoing $5 a week tax cut, and counters with a temporary one-year petrol saving of $6?

Dutton promises you’ll save $14 a week on fuel. The real number is less than half that

The Coalition’s election pitch is aimed squarely at outer suburban voters. But what does it mean for everyone else?

People that are fooled by this disappointing clown are truly mugs.

Are you not fooled by Albo?

$4.86 a week. Not $5

Could buy a bag of doritos buddy. It's very exciting

The NDIS was introduced by the Gillard government. In that government Albo held a senior ministerial portfolio and was Leader of the House (managing shit and ensuring legislation passed). At the time, she led a minority government and it was Albo who secured the cross bench support.

Definitely the worse prime minister we've had. Terrible

Surely the dumbest of merkins would understand that a deduction in fuel costs has a massive effect on cost of everything that requires transportation ... which is literally everything.

It is a legit aid to cost of living.

But it also blows a hole in the government coffers, hence reluctance to do it.

Yeah but do you really think that Dutton needs to pander to the big end of town ? This is the problem when these measures are not targeted. The bloke 3 doors up from me needs zero help filling the tank of his way-too-loud Aston Martin Vantage.

The optics here are obvious. He’s going to repeal the low income tax cuts and wants to rev up those stage 3 tax cuts that were never passed on last time, funded by cuts to the public service (nobody likes them, so it’s like shooting rabbits on a farm).

Superannuation now, what next? These are unrealized gains. Ffs

Sorry what is your beef exactly? That they have increased tax on super balances over $3m. That’s 0.5% of the population.

I get that it may give rise to liquidity problems, but will this be a problem for you ? Do tell ?

Let's be honest
Whoever is elected will make no real tangible difference to any of our lives.

Ooooh, this one hit at one of our resident Labor shills.
Simple answer is yes because:
1. they won't stop at superannuation
2. it is a tax on something you have'nt received. Surely even a Left wing apologist like yourself can see that.
3. there is no indexation to account for inflation. Becomes a tax now that will affect future generations as 'normal' superannuation balances grow.
4. as a solution to the housing crisis how long before they start taxing your unrealized increasing house value.
5. how long before they start taxing unrealized gains on investments i.e. shares etc
6. as in the article "the thin edge of the wedge"

I know you're glug, glug, glugging the Labor Koolaid but get your snout out of the trough and start looking beyond the election and ideological f**kwittery.

 

[the phantom menace]

Lol, some one must receive the (laughably pathetic) LNP scare tactic talking points...

Get in the car this morning Albo, visit the GG and bring on the election!

FFS, he set an early alarm and has already done it!

Ok well after you put your lib crystal ball back in it's Dutton head shaped case, we can talk about the reality of what the policy change actually means.

A typical intelligent response from yourself. Read the whole article genius.

Not at all. Just someone who looks beyond the Labor party Koolaid that you seemingly consume at a prodigious rate.

Speaking of scare tactics, I see your bunch of pathetic f**kwits are resurrecting (as they do at every election) the Medicare bogey man scare.

Only when they go on sale at Woolies or Coles currently they are sitting at $5 a packet

I read the article and the intention was to name drop Kamala and Biden and Ablo and add on doomsday prophecies and something that Frank has no idea about.

What do you think the policy reform means and how does it actually impact SMSFs ? Do you have a SMSF ? I do .
