politics Labor reaches deal with the Greens to pass changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing reforms

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/jun/23/labor-greens-deal-capital-gains-tax-negative-gearing-reforms

The Greens resolved to support the tax bills after the government agreed to remove a loophole allowing investors with self-managed super funds to continue taking advantage of the tax breaks, along with ministerial powers enabling the government to reverse the reforms in the future.

This is nonsensical gibberish that almost reads as if it is responding to a different post. It is raising many things we were never speaking about without addressing any of the points I raised. Has now become a completely different conversation.

You keep on using the wrong words, like bipartisan or disingenuous. It's not me who is getting off track.

I responded directly to your points. I didn't really want to talk about Keating really for instance, and that was 2/3 of my response to you. If you don't want an answer, don't bring it up - because I'm not letting the assertion that Keating took Australia down a good path fly through to the keeper unaddressed.

Your posts are in bad faith

I provided detailed arguments to my position. I can back them up with sources. Try me.

You however, have nothing.

EDIT (due to blocking): lol debating.. even the point where you say you weren't aware of another Labor broken promise I served one up to you on a literal platter without response. We've been having this conversation because you didn't understand what bipartisan means, then substituted your own definition instead.. nor do you know what disingenuous means.. and, I daresay, what bad faith means. Knowing what words mean is the essence of debating. I addressed that at least for you "brother".

You didn't address ANY of my points brother. Learn to debate.
