I did the pre vote thing on the weekend, as I will be back in SA on election day. Pre-voting is the way to go IMO, the line ups to vote are shorter and there less weirdo's handing out the how to vote cards....

Q. wrote:The Libs love giving the wealthy a handout. 'Trickle up' policy at work:

According to Treasury documents, flattening tax brackets will result in a total tax cut of $1,205 a year for a person earning $50,000, $1,955 for someone earning $80,000, $3,040 for a person earning $100,000 increasing to $11,640 for those earning $200,000 or more.

Based on the government’s figures that the Coalition’s plan will cost $230bn more than Labor’s, the Australia Institute analysis finds those earning more than $180,000 will get at least $77bn in tax cuts over the next 10 years. Most of that benefit ($64bn) will flow to those earning more than $200,000, it says.

The majority of the income tax cuts (54%) goes to those in the top 20% of taxpayers, according to the Australia Institute.

The analysis also reveals that under the flat tax plan high-income earners – defined as the top 20%, estimated to be those earning $203,000 by 2024 – will be paying 4% less of the overall income tax take than in 2018-19.

Low-income earners, the bottom 30%, will pay 1.7% more of the overall tax take and middle-income earners, the middle 50%, will pay 2.2% more.

Actually you quoted the Guardian quoting Treasury and it had nothing to do with franking credits. Here it is.

The time has come for proper media reforms. Our democracy is corrupted by the Murdoch media and journalists who essentially work for a propaganda organisation, which is patently obvious during an election campaign. Is the bizarre attack on a dead relative the final straw? Time to delegitimitise them as a news organisation and force the foreign owner to pay the taxes he owes.

Chris Kenny attempted to drown out all and sundry with his review. Comical.

Neither leader was particularly convincing. We gleaned sweet f**k all from tonight.
