Hey thanks for all the links, that's awesome. Nothing spectacular but that's a really nice set of simple things that cover a lot of ground. If they can actually get the message past the universally right wing media we might have a chance of not getting fucked by the Libs again

I am quite happy with that budget. As a low income worker with a student debt there is alot more in the budget then I expected. The tax reduction, elect rebate, student debt reduction.

That plus Labor’s future made in australia initiative has at least earned my initial interest for getting my vote when election comes close.

Well, I guess I'm technically a winner. From what I can tell, nothing substantial.

The most significant may actually be the Doctors & PBS increased funding, though I've been lucky on the health side of things so far.

Things are tough for a lot of people, and I hope those who really need it get something in the budget that really helps them.
