@lesstenny I’ve been telling everyone I know about this. It’s ridiculous to oppose these changes. My friend was upset about her family farm trust but I was able to sort her out after listening to clear, concise analysis here 👇@WeekOnWednesday

@AnnaH5067 @MisinfoFact @WeekOnWednesday Yes. There are three pods that i listen to on a regular basis and that is one of them.

@MisinfoFact @kazza264 Everything anyone needs to know is clearly discussed in this episode of the @WeekOnWednesday with guest host Emma Dawson. For 98% of the population there is nothing to fear in this budget. The remaining 2% CAN afford to pay a little extra.

A world class education for every child in every school, everywhere in Australia.

That’s what @PublicSchoolsAU teachers campaigned for and it’s what our teachers won.

Now Albo & Labor are delivering it to every child.

Why is Murdoch’s NewsCorpse attacking tax reform?
NewsCorpse is a real estate company
NewsCorpse’s control of REA Group is worth about $13,750,000,000

That’s 65% of NewsCorpse’s total value

The Australian, Herald Sun, Daily Tele & Courier Mail editors are running a company line

[Ben Davison @Ben_Davison1]

You don’t have a trust

There isn’t a secret trust that will come into being when your parents die

Even if you have a few shares or bonds or “coins” you’re not going to make 20years worth of wages in 6 months

You are part of the 95%

Stop listening to the mouthpieces of Murdoch

[Ben Davison @Ben_Davison1]

Proving once again that in Australia there is the Labor Party and the rest are just the “we’re not the Labor Party” grouping off to the right.

[Ben Davison @Ben_Davison1]

Apparently One Nation’s Gas Tax is the tax WE pay to prop up gas exploration?!?

@Ben_Davison1 Pay Gina for the privilege of breathing.

No thanks. Prefer the Labor method.

In one chart the budget is validated

[Ben Davison @Ben_Davison1]

Population to housing isn’t a 1:1 relationship

People have partners, kids, housemates, elderly parents

The standard is 2.4 people per dwelling

That means we’re building more than enough homes to meet the demand

So what’s the barrier?

CGT & Neg Gearing distorting valuations!

Some frenzied feedback on the below: The cookers hate facts - but here are a few:
1990:
60% of the population finished year 12 - now 80%+;
8% of the population had a uni degree - now 34%
Female participation rate 52% - now 63%
Inflation was 6.5% - now 4.1%
Cash rate was 17% - now 4.35%
Life expectancy was 76 years - now 85 years
To name a few ...
Is 2026 better than 1990?
Of course it is.
