Don't know how many years this Coalition's $212bn figure is over, but by golly according to this tax threshold indexation is going to hit the budget.
(It's unlikely to be Angus's problem at 2028, nor Tim's.)

When challenged with the very legitimate question "do you want to see house prices go up or down?" most politicians unpack a word salad that makes little or no sense.
They are skewered and in many cases look silly.
The answer to the question is rather straight forward and it is:
"I want to see household incomes increase by more than the change in house prices".
Simple.

It’s amusing that Pauline says she’s been a small business owner all her life. For the past 30yrs she’s been in politics. If you take that off her 72yrs that’s 42. Even if she started a business at 17, that’s 25yrs. She can’t even be honest about the basics.

[epictetus135 @epectitus135]

@PatsKarvelas how are you going to pay for indexation you can’t just say it’s a good policy and then throw that issue out with the trash

[epictetus135 @epectitus135]

#insiders has a friedmanite panel to give us a fair and balanced assessment of the budget 🤷🏼‍♂️🤣🤬@PatsKarvelas it’s not overreach

[epictetus135 @epectitus135]

@HaveeSnowball The use of the word liar has been un parliamentary language for centuries . You have obviously never listened to Parliament.

@clairlemon @ClareONeilMP We need an inheritance tax even that well known JS mill thought so

@IRanalyst @SwingRequired exactly typical Wright being ideology rich people need to be able to make more money to be poor people need to be made for

Another excellent analysis by Michael Keating of the tax changes the evidence is that the rate of innovation was if anything better from 1985 to 1999, than since. Certainly, the rate of productivity growth was a lot higher! #auspol https://t.co/UxfZsbbWoy

New Zealand has no CGT, but its tax to GDP ratio is 3% of GDP higher than in Australia. That's $90 billion extra tax than we pay here in Australia. That $7,500 a family - per annum.
You might not pay CGT but you are slugged in other areas, especially the goods & services tax

So they should. without parties to structure and organize politics, democracy crumbles. A failing
party system is a hallmark of democratic backsliding and instability #auspol https://t.co/9mwmllouU4

Do Australians really ‘work half the week’ just to pay their income tax? NO #auspol https://t.co/79zk27dC4X

@padders001 @MadsMelbourne Sorry to tell you politics is a vocation . Apparently you don’t whether the pilot of of your Boeing has no experience

[epictetus135 @epectitus135]

@MadsMelbourne So your argument is the tax changes should be applied to existing investments ! Great ! Join us for equality
