Tackle the cost of living
If you’re worried about the cost of rent, mortgages or food, you’re not alone.
We’re all being ripped off by the big banks, supermarkets and big corporations making massive profits.
While you pay more, 1 in 3 big corporations pay $0 tax. Yep, you’re paying more tax than a multinational corporation. That needs to change.
The Greens' plan to tackle the cost of living
We can take on the big corporations and ban their price gouging. The Greens are pushing to make big corporations and billionaires pay more tax, raising over $514bn to fund the things we all need:
- Dental & mental health into Medicare (we already secured dental into Medicare for kids, now is our chance to get it for everyone)
- Make supermarket price gouging illegal & break up the duopoly
- Bring back free GPs & open free public health clinics
- Cap unlimited rent increases & regulate the banks to deliver lower mortgages
- 50c public transport fares (Greens pressure already got this in QLD!)
- Wipe all student HECs debt, bring back free TAFE & Uni (the PM had free uni, why shouldn’t you?)
- Universal free childcare & early childhood education
- World class, truly free public schools
- $800 a year back to school payment
- Lift the pension, lower the retirement age
- Raise Centrelink payments so no one lives in poverty
Stay tuned for more announcements.
All of this is possible. Countries around the world already have things we’re fighting for right now.
If you want things like dental into Medicare and a home you can actually afford, the first step is to vote for it.
