Pocock Proposes 25% Gas Tax, Funds Welfare & Housing
Description
Independent senator David Pocock proposes a 25% tax on gas exports to fund welfare boosts and housing, supported by Greens, Australia Institute, and major Labor unions. The idea could bring in up to $17 billion, with charities urging the Albanese government to limit tax breaks for property investors. A new poll shows average life satisfaction at an all-time low, with nearly 35% of people struggling to live on their income due to energy shocks and global tensions.
