There are many ways to tackle affordability. There are fewer ways to effectively tackle climate change. And the federal carbon price and rebate leaves most better off, especially the poor. When they say axe the tax it’s not about affordability. It’s about axing climate action.
Apropos of nothing, as in maybe nobody cares, but removing the carbon tax rebate is a very regressive action (ie. hurts the poor, helps richer households).
But hey, populism! 🥳
