Always happy to go with science and progressive thinking, more concerned we have inexperienced members of Parliament with concentration in one area only ie climate change and no other policies and when you look at the Greens website for example their idea of funding their ideas is just to tax the wealthiest Australians which is high school economics.
Would prefer Labor govern in their own right than have to deal and make bargains with these one policy parties who lack a grasp of the big picture and have these simplistic views.
Save the planet by all means but getting the wealthy to pay more tax when they pay little anyway won't work, been tried as recently as with Biden in the USA and scrapped just as quickly.
My daughter is a RN so I know all about women being abused in the workplace, underpaid and undervalued and I'll be happy to cheer and vote for Albo, Penny and crew if they can fix those problems...but I won't be holding my breath.
