The Coalition’s commitment to the forgotten families of Australia is to ease cost of living pressures. Stopping wasteful and unnecessary Government spending will help keep interest rates down. Stopping or removing unnecessary new taxes will help make it easier for you to pay your bills.
Reducing cost of living pressures
The Coalition will:
 |
Stop Labor's new taxes like the Carbon Tax and the Mining Tax. These taxes will damage our national economy, increase prices, make cost of living pressures worse and destroy jobs. |
|
Help take pressure off interest rates by returning the Budget to surplus. Labor’s record $107 billion debt and their wasteful borrowing of $135 million every day is putting unnecessary upward pressure on interest rates. |
|
Protect the private health insurance rebate, which Labor and the Greens have committed to cut back. |
|
Support families with education costs, by increasing the education tax rebate to $1,000 a year for a child in secondary school and $500 for a child in primary school and make it available for all education expenses. |
|
 |
It’s only by returning to responsible economic management and reducing debt and deficit that practical support for families can again be provided by the Government.
