      It probably isn’t actually $7k from those 3.7 million people. It’s more like $1k from every Australian. They haven’t only taken from the poorest among us.

      Vote Labor, they’re changing the capital gains tax discount. You can’t deny that their actions align with the phrase “tax wealth, not work”.

      Also the Greens are NEVER going to win a federal election.

        Preferential voting means you can vote greens to show you want a less centrist party, and put Labor 2nd. For when the greens don’t win.

          No party beholden to voters can be perfect. The Greens aren’t beholden to voters (and aren’t perfect anyway).

    We need a real socialist party. And a way to educate the masses about what socialism actually is so they’re not terrified of it.

    Imagine, there are people with billions of dollars - essentially an infinite money supply - and they’re NOT using it to end homelessness, or improve conditions for the poorest.

    People will die on our streets this winter, while some Australian have 10 digit bank accounts.
