Prime minister spruiks large budget surplus as Australian households battle cost-of-living crisis
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese believesĀ Australians will welcome the news of a larger than expected budget surplus even as their own budgets continue to take a battering.
Asked my baby boomer dad to give one of his houses to me and he said he really worked hard to buy all the 8 properties. Hope this surplus will trickle down and i can afford to buy a property.
Anyone else remember when the abc was left heavy?
Anyway, this:
"The fact that we've turned a $78 billion deficit that was forecast under the Liberal National Party government just over a year ago into a surplus that's in excess of $4 billion is a positive thing."
Ugh I absolutely hate how media have swallowed the lie that budget surpluses are anything other than pure misapplication of public funds.
Like... why brag that they've taken all this tax from us and they're not spending it when us citizens are going through hard times?
