Spot on. Labor’s CGT changes are economic self-harm.
This isn’t ‘fairness’ — it’s a direct assault on aspiration, startups, retirees, and productive investment in businesses. Australia already sits in the high side for CGT. Pushing effective rates higher makes us uncompetitive and kills the very capital formation we need for growth.
Say NO to the biggest anti-investment tax grab this century. Grandfather existing assets and incentivise new productive capital instead.
Australia's current CGT rate is high by international standards. To be globally competitive: we need to lower the CGT rate; and NOT INCREASE CGT to 147% above the international average!
Say NO to the biggest tax increase this century in Australia.
