The Zig Zag

Look Who’s For Tax Cuts?

Interesting that in the current Australian election campeign;

"LABOR leader Mark Latham made a concerted bid to turn the election in his favor today by promising tax cuts…The top tax threshold will also be lifted to $85,000 .."

And he Liberal’s response:

“However, he [Peter Costello, the Liberal Treasurer] refused to say if the government had room to offer its own extra tax cuts to match Labor's plan. “

So, in an economy where, on current trends the national debt will be repaid in the next couple of years, we have the left promising tax cuts while the right is non committal.
