Hilariously, the AFR is showing just how absurd is the scare campaign against the super tax changes.
They give an eg where someone's super goes from $2m to $3.18m in a year!
Yep a $1.18m increase.
How much extra tax?
$1,528!
OMG!! THAT'S OUTRAG... err... oh actually that's bugger all

Think you might one day have $3m in your super & be affected by the super tax changes?
Ok, you are 18yo, you just got a job - it pays... $150k!
Give yourself a 3.7% annual pay rise.
Never take time off for study, kids or illness.

It can be a sneaky way into a degree that you’d otherwise struggle to get into. I started with tafe and ended up with a masters degree. And you get the practical training you don’t normally get with a degree. That might put it in a positive light. Good luck!

And that’s exactly why we’re making it free TAFE permanent, nationwide – to give more Australians the opportunity to gain skills and get ahead.
