As it currently stands, more than half of the benefit of the capital gains tax discount go to the top 1%. People under 30 only got 2% of the benefit! 📻Senior Economist @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social on ABC Radio National #auspol
The government might be about to change the way trusts are taxed, getting rid of a tax dodge used mostly by the very wealthy. Treasury estimates that around 63% of all income from trusts goes to the richest 10%! @grogsgamut.bsky.social @elinorjohnstonleek.bsky.social #auspol
A federal court has ruled that Coles misled shoppers over discounted prices. "It's not like we were just talking about 1 or 2 items. We were talking well over 200." - Chief Economist Greg Jericho @grogsgamut.bsky.social #auspol
Future generations were never going to benefit from negative gearing and the CGT discount in the same way as boomers and Gen X. They were effectively locked out. 📺 Chief Economist Greg Jericho at the Senate Committee on Intergenerational Housing Inequity @grogsgamut.bsky.social #auspol

The budget brought big changes to how wealth is taxed in Australia! Trusts will now pay a minimum 30% tax rate, which will raise around $4.4 billion a year, and reduce inequality. @grogsgamut.bsky.social @mattgrudnoff.bsky.social #auspol #Budget2026
Albanese was asked about a gas tax on SBS, and a few of his answers sounded more like gas company spin than a government making sure Australians get a fair return for their resources! @grogsgamut.bsky.social #auspol
The Albanese government finally released its formal response to the Murphy review into online gambling, but there's a lot missing. "These kinds of restrictions fall well short of the total ban that the Murphy Review called for." @mhharrington.bsky.social #auspol
Australians are the biggest gamblers in the world, and the government has taken little action despite strong public support. ‘The majority of Australians, about 75%, would support a ban on gambling advertising.’ - Morgan Harrington, Research Manager @mhharrington.bsky.social #auspol
Inflation means more GST going to Tasmania, but everyone pays higher prices. A 25% tax on gas exports could provide enough for Tassie to fund a stadium every three years! @leanneminshull.bsky.social #auspol

What keeps me going? Knowing punk anti-fascists and Puerto Rican joy are taking over the Super Bowl. Green Day to Bad Bunny. Rage, rhythm, and culture louder than the chaos. We needed this. LFG! 🔥🎶 #BadBunnyBowl

SIKORSKI: In fifth year of war, Putin still fighting in Donbas, scared of Ukrainian strikes on Moscow. I bet not single person in this room would’ve predicted that. Amazing success by Ukraine. Russia is unable to launch offensive, losing territory and more troops it can recruit.

Seems I need something lighthearted to finish up this dreadful year. My very 'big guy' bear uses a small tree for a little extra action to scare a raccoon and turns and smiles. Yes he does. And I am smiling too. You cannot not love bears.
