AUSTRALIA’S VOICE RELEASES DRAMATIC TAX POLICY: “No Tax Under 50K”

Australia's Voice Senator Fatima Payman has launched a dramatic tax policy tonight on Network 10’s The Project, by promising to fight for the tax-free threshold to be brought in line with the minimum wage.

 

Senator Payman said she’s going into this election promising a fight to re-set the taxation system, and would introduce legislation that would end the cost of living crisis by giving every Australian worker an enormous tax cut.

 

“Nobody earning the minimum wage should be paying tax,” Senator Payman said.

 

“And by raising the tax-free threshold, so nobody pays tax under about $50,000, almost half of the Australian workforce would pay no tax at all.”

 

“We all want to be like the boomers were,” the Senator said.

 

“It’s time we reset the taxation system back to what it was like for the boomers, when everything was fairer.”

 

“So Australia’s Voice is aiming to reverse neoliberalism, to the way things were in the golden age back before Thatcher and Reagan and Hawke gave our wealth away to billionaires.”

 

“I believe in ‘Trickle Up’ economics — the opposite of neoliberalism,” she said.

 

Australia’s Voice argues that this huge, crisis-ending tax cut, which would create enormous economic growth, would be funded by a return to a Menzies-era upper tax bracket of between 60 and 70 per cent. Modelling is currently being undertaken by the Parliamentary Budget Office.

 

“We all have the power to do this together, Senator Payman said.

 

“The thing is this is actually possible, so let’s start the conversation; let’s give this country hope again by voting for Australia’s Voice in the Senate.”

 

Australia’s Voice is running Senate tickets in every mainland state.
