You realise you are making the same case as Maduro? It hasn’t worked so well for them. - Comment on 'We've reached a breaking point': Is it time to tax older Australians more? 6 days ago:
There is a balance between not taxing our resources (Australia) and overtaxing or nationalising them (Venezuela). I’m guessing something like Norway levels would be good.

Does anyone have a link to the tax on super over $300m legislation? I seem to remember it getting altered a fair bit before it got up but I can’t (be bothered to) find it.
More taxing of capital/assets please. - Comment on Australian health insurance premiums just had their biggest hike in a decade. Is it time to scrap private health cover? 2 weeks ago:

I’ll be furious if they can’t get that done. Albo is cooling his jets on tax reform after that, until after the next election. We will see what he proposes for then. Hopefully lots. - Comment on Albanese's politics of patience: Democracy needs mature leadership 6 months ago:
So angry - I think he is doing the best he can.
