MODERATORS
Queenslanders are also getting a $1000 rebate from the state government. So in total, $1300 off our energy bills in the next financial year.
Kind of shocked the federal government are giving $300 to every household.
He’s getting grilled about that now on 7:30 report!
As he should, like all the critics are saying, how they hell is this not being means tested!
Sometimes means testing can become more expensive and time consuming than just getting the benefit out the door to everyone.
Plus its less popular because you inevitably have the murdoch-whingers crying about the less wealthy being undeserving by dint of their lack of wealth, and also people complaining over edge cases that miss out.
