Dr Scrooge

People moaned when Dr Cullen was talking $10/week possible tax cuts, but it is even worse than that. He has now clarified that even that much is far too much money to give back to taxpayers:

“Some have misunderstood what I said about the $10 thing. . . (thinking) that is what people were going to get. What I was saying was even that was well above what would be an acceptable level of fiscal loosening,” Dr Cullen said.

As the graph above goes, Labour has taken in a massive amount more taxation and revenue in the last six years. And Dr Cullen says even $10 a week back is too much.
