Government seeks to legislate tax cuts this week

The federal government is looking to legislate their newly announced tax cuts this week, with Treasurer Jim Chalmers leading the showdown.

did this guy just say every Australian will have $536 every year in their pocket like he is proud of that. The reality is a tax cut is just a ruse for a higher tax to be implemented elsewhere

Vote grabbing budget, dish out 1.7 billion dollars for votes, labour losers.

At the very least Labor has reduced cost of living across the board eg rent assistance, supported wage increases, tax breaks, cheaper housing, cheaper education tafe uni schools, cheaper electricity etc etc. The LNP opposed every measure until recently supporting Labor Policies on PBS, Medicare Bulk Billing, Electricity rebate etc. Labor has my vote as the LNP has lost the plot & not articulated any plan or plans absolutely pathetic.

I would like to thank the government for the $4 plus increase per fortnight
And the pandas would like to thank the government for the 15k per week for thier great lifestyle during a tough time for humans

Simple solution here! It's been the so-called two-party preferred system that have been running our country and the hard-working Australian to the ground. Support an independent. Not a billionaire mining magnate. Not a racist political party. And not a political party that is directly and/or indirectly associated with a major party. Please do your homework fellow Aussies because we are the one's that choose our government, as we are also losing our freedom of speech.

INCOME TAX IS VOLUNTARY BY THE CONSTITUTION!!! ONLY TAX ON TRADE. DUBAI, NO INCOME TAX!!! WHY?

[mariceto]

Government should give up from their fair share and cut their cost and cut international donations that has nothing with Australia its all excuse for more and more spending then will all come to us bcs we are not going to need pay back much.

What about increasing the Jobseeker Payments for older Australians over 55 who have worked and paid income tax?

Student debt relief just means sticking people who don't have any with the bill as President Biden tried to do.

Aussies want utility bills, fuel and grocery prices brought back down, not bandaid solutions, VOTE ONE NATION 🇦🇺 START PUTTING AUSSIES FIRST

There are so many indicators that suggest at what pace economic activity has continued to expand and block traders tend to know them better. For total size, Bureau of Economic Analysis uses the expenditure approach to calculate GDP, which tends to result in a larger figure than that from what National Bureau of Statistics of China uses the production approach. In terms of the more scientific PPP understanding of the real sizes, the US has the second largest economy in the world, around 75~80% the size of China's economy. If they both use the same method, it's hard to say which country's GDP is larger, but the PPP figures would likely be around 1 : 2 if not even worse. Just an example, a very QUICK AND SIMPLE EXAMPLE

A slight medium range radar detection of future discontent? Tipping a bit more of our own resource into maintaining the surface tension upon the sea of apathy. Its all that keeps both of their boats afloat.

Good solid fiscally responsible budget

[mungogerryjnr]

Rush 😂😂😂😂
Elections soon ah!

What’s the rush
$250 first year up to $800 over two years
Really intelligent with the debt owning!
Maybe the right thing to do is we pay an extra $800 straight away and then no one votes Labour, not one single vote forever

we’re over taxed i would like income tax would reduced by half 3/4’s of current rate. note donald trump with all the savings he is making for the us people looking at no income tax on any one earning under $150k or aud $89k thats the std australia needs to aim towards no income tax on people earning under $90k.
