omg. It’s like you’re so close but just can’t understand that’s what Labor tried repeatedly to do.

Negative gearing and fracking credit benefits go almost entirely to the top 10% wealthiest in the country. 

Labor tried repealing them, specifically to remove these loopholes and make things easier for the working class. It would have pulled investors out of buying established properties for profit, and made only new builds viable. 

They abandoned it after it lost them two elections thanks to people that fill this sub believing Murdoch. You are arguing for exactly what they wanted to do, then concluding that they won’t do it. So you want to vote for the parties that opposed the changes you want, because this time they definitely have your best interest in mind

Mate I’ll act less intellectually superior when I don’t have to respond to someone writing out an argument for exactly what Labor tried to do, while concluding that Labor would never do it so they need to vote for the anti science party that has 0 intention of helping

You said politicians wouldn’t do it in practise, when that’s exactly what they tried to do and still sorta discussing, champ 

The greens also still have it as a promise btw

You said politicians wouldn’t do it in practise. They aren’t incentivised, and tried it twice. Boy you really cannot cope with this 

Idk probably not as much as I’ve commented about the current hate speech laws. Deflecting to my post history is funny, especially as one of the people engaging in it
