National's ACTUAL tax proposal 31 Aug. (not the spin).
Quote: “A couple, without children, earning üp to $120k PA” (ie $119,999 PA jointly or $60k each) would get an extra $100 per fortnight”.
It's actually only $60.76 /fn !! That's a $1020 pa “HOLE”. (Here's the maths.)
Existing Thresholds
First $14,000 @ 10.5% =$1470
Then $34,000 (to $48,000) @ 17.5% =$5950
Then $12,000 (to $60,000) @ 30% = $3600
Total Tax paid each =$11,020
National's, proposal
First $15,600 @ 10.5% =$1638
Then $37,900 (to $53,500) @ 17.5% = $6632
Then $6500 (to $60,000) @ 30% = $1950
Total Tax paid each =$10,220
ACTUAL SAVINGS =$800PA (each $30.76/fortnight) or $61.53/fn for a couple - NOT $100
“A superannuant couple ($22,869ea X 2) up to $26 boost “ It's ACTUALLY only $8.61 /fn !! That's a $452 pa “HOLE” !
Existing Thresholds
First $14,000 @ 10.5% =$1470
Then $8869 @ 17.5% =$1552
Total Tax paid each =$3022
National's, proposal
First $15,600 @ 10.5% =$1638
Then $7269 @ 17.5% = $1272
Total Tax paid each =$2910
ACTUAL SAVINGS =$112 PA (each $4.30/fortnight) or $8.61/fn for a couple. NOT $26.
When you think about the cuts (austerity) that will be needed. It's actually pretty underwhelming and insulting.

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am Clifford Jose, legal counsel to the late Mr. Robert Fitzpatrick, an American consultant formerly with Shell UK Ltd in London. Tragically, Mr. Fitzpatrick passed away in the EgyptAir Flight 990 crash on October 31, 1999.
Despite exhaustive efforts, we have been unable to locate any next of kin or ascertain the existence of a valid will. Consequently, I am reaching out to seek your assistance in this matter.
Please find attached further details for your review.
Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to your response.
Yours sincerely,
Barrister Clifford Jose

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
