It’s official: Australia’s poverty payments are the least generous in the OECD.
Yet Labor are still refusing to #raisetherate of income support, even after the Government’s own Economic Infusion Advisory Committee said it should be a “first priority” in the upcoming budget.
There is no justification to keep people in poverty. Labor spend billions on defence, fossil fuel subsidises, and tax handouts for property investors. They can afford to lift vulnerable people out of poverty. They’re just choosing not to.
