The average level of intelligence of the public is way lower than you give it credit for Jordan.
The issue I see it is that the average is low, and half of the population are below that average....
Sadly this is true
My dad’s fav saying is, “what you need to understand is that 50% of the population is below average intelligence” and when you look at it from that perspective it all makes sense…
its not that at all most of the public are not political at all and when big news outlets say jump they do. its not that their stupid its that they have bigger problems on hand such as "How am i going to feed the family" or "Where am i going to get a job". so maybe if the government implemented rules and laws that gave private journalist funding people wouldn't have to rely on controlled media for news updates
It's a bias that needs a name, but people tend to look at "progress" and simply assume they had a part in it. For the sake of making a long story short, take people like Newton and Einstein as an example, and the progress they have contributed to humanity as a civilization. Great people like that are way below the percentile of all people that have ever lived, but people also enjoy the fruits of said progress, which makes them think they are part of that progress. So here we are, the generally rather stupid human on average being being redefined as per the extremely rare and exceptional ones.
In short, IQ=100 is, when it comes down to it, pretty dumb. In fact, most of us have a bias to expect far more from people with IQ=100 than they actually are capable of.
This particular bias needs a name.

Why does it say this comment is 2 days old? Maybe it's just on my end.
Corporations literally using news articles to complain that they can't break the law is crazy
my favourite is right after the greens and teals started all deciding to highlight how little tax mining, oil and gas pay in taxes I started seeing adverts from THE mineral council of Australia basically trying to threaten Australians "We do pay (some) taxes! and those taxes help build all of these things! Every Australian has to support us or else! (or else what? you get taxed more and we can build MORE of those things you are trying to brag about contributing to?)"
I liked when they said the mining industry not paying their fair share was preposterous, because they also invested x amount of money toward natural gas (that they also will own, intend to profit from and avoid paying most tax)
I suppose now that Russia is slowly crumbling, we need a new oligarchy.

Standard cycle in Australia sadly. It's been this way my whole life and will continue to be this way long after I'm gone.
- Liberals fuck everyone for 2-3 terms
- Labour finally get in after everyone gets sick of being fucked
- Liberal propaganda machine goes into overdrive
- Labour gets voted out after one term
- Australia continues its long slide into a corporate dystopia
Not watching the news and watching RUclips actually might keep people more informed at this point
LNP sounds like the communist army of a small country in asia
We have a similar thing happening in Canada. There has been a huge amount of debate and coverage of a tax change to slightly increase taxes on capital gains over 250k per year. This affects almost no one, and the people it does affect are barely going to pay any more than they already are. But if you watched our news you'd think this was a huge deal that was going to bankrupt everyone in the country.

The fucking brazenness of it is ridiculous. Yeah he's trying to convince people that the big mean bullies are oppressing the little guy, which happens to be *the fucking mining industry.*
I'd clutch mine too but I can't afford any. 😭
It’s good that the ALP have made these very specific changes that will structurally help over the medium term once the budget takes effect at the end of the month, but ultimately it’s competing with “I feel like I’m worse off than 2 years ago” or “my favourite local business has just had to close down”. Yes these are things were caused by global inflation and the RBA’s local response, but them the breaks of being in charge.
unironically the financial review is great for revealing the crap they these corporations want and do.
The best solution in Australia is to become an oil and/or gas exporter. Then you get to take home $111 Billion/year in income and pay no tax.
We're one of the largest exporters of coal and gas in the world. It's just that the mines pay fuck all in taxes/royalties so the revenue goes to private and foreign businesses that own the mines rather than the government. Both Prime Ministers that tried to correct this (Whitlam and Rudd) ended up getting ousted by the CIA
We already are. Thing is, we have the mining council and private overseas investors who've made a monopoly on our natural resources and sell them back to us at double the original price
From a macroeconomic standpoint, that's actually probably the stupidest thing to do.
Sure, while international oil/gas prices are high, we'll be dragging in heaps of tax revenue.
But international oil/gas prices aren't static or stable. They're prone to fluctuations, with oil/gas prices being high in some periods and low in other periods.
In certain cases when there are global commodity price shocks, international oil/gas prices can fluctuate in the extremes, with previously high prices plummeting to very low prices.
If we were overdependent on tax revenue from oil/gas revenue, and global oil/gas prices suddenly dropped, then the amount of tax revenue Australia brings in would plummet and we would face a very several structural deficit in our federal budget.
Additionally, Australia's oil and gas industries, alongside it's mining industries, create what economists refer to as 'Dutch Disease'. What Dutch Disease refers to is that when there is high international demand for products produced in one part of an economy, it has the effect of crippling the international competitiveness of other parts of the economy.
This Dutch Disease phenomena occurs because of how floating exchange rates work. The way it works is that:
1-High international demand for Australia commodities like iron ore and fossil fuels pushes up demand for the Australian dollar in the foreign exchange market, which is the international market where different currencies are bought and sold.
This is because foreigners need access to the Australian dollar to buy Australian products.
2-This higher demand for the Australian dollar in the foreign exchange market leads to the Australian dollar drastically increasing in value compared to other currencies. In economics, this is known as 'currency appreciation'.
3-The Australian dollar increasing in value compared to other currencies means that foreigners have to spend more of their currency to acquire the same amount of Australian dollars.
That in turn means that they have to spend more of their currency to buy the same amount of Australian goods (because Australian goods are sold for the Australian dollar).
The result is that Australian products basically become more expensive for foreign customers, which reduces their international competitiveness.
The industries that cause this Dutch Disease effect, such as the mining industry and fossil fuel industries, remain fine because of the abnormally high international demand for their products.
But other Australian industries that have to compete in the international economy, such as our agricultural industry, our manufacturing industry, and many of our service exporting industries such as tourism and education, end up suffering because of this Dutch Disease. The Dutch disease effect damages the export competitiveness of these industries.
In the case of manufacturing, the Dutch Disease effect outright crippled the international competitiveness of Australia's manufacturing industry during the early 2000s commodity boom, which is one of the biggest reasons why Australia doesn't have an advanced manufacturing industry.
If you want to become over dependent on the oil/gas industries for tax revenue, chances are that you're going to end up exacerbating the Dutch Disease effect in the Australian economy.
The oil and gas industries will boom, but many of our other industries will suffer and go into recession. The result will be that in the long term, we'll have an undiversified economy, and a continuing chronic overdependence on mining and fossil fuel extraction, which in turn would exacerbate our economic exposure to future global commodity price shocks.
@@jamesclarke2789 who said anything about over dependence on them ? How about they pay "some tax" at all first.
@@jamesclarke2789 Interesting post, but completely irrelevant. No-one is talking about becoming dependent on oil and gas. We also have the ag sector, tourism and education as stable income. This is about being ripped off.

❤❤❤ yesss! I remember growing up hearing in the 2010s about how wealthy a country Australia is. ....no not really anymore, we could be if we actually made money from our exports and products, but we don't tax the corporations. Australia isn't rich, the 8 people who run the mega corporations are rich. Must be nice for them to be able to afford to live and afford healthcare 😢
If we're so rich why is the public sector crumbling
The only way to benefit is get in on the embezzlement, we NDIS now
I like to say Improving the common wealth.
What do you think of Ed Husic's idea of lowering corporate taxes?
Labor are bought off by big corporate interests though, look how little they've done for taxing big mining companies, in fact they're complicit in that. Under a federal Labor government in WA we let big mining corporations get away with paying almost nothing, in fact we're basically paying them to extract our resources at this point and clean up their mess. Not to mention how Labor are doing shit all for the housing crisis, yeah they're doing something but it's pennies and won't solve the issue. Because most Labor politicians are property investors, it'll never be fixed since they have a vested interest. That being said I'll still vote for them, because they're the better option over LNP.
Last time a Prime Minister tried to raise the taxes on mines, he got ousted by the CIA
@@KK-mc9qw If you're going to make an argument, make it relevant to the topic
Labor try to raise taxes on mining companies but have lost the next election everytime or been forced to change policies. The upcoming qld election will be another example of that. One of the most popular QLD Labor governments increases taxes on coal companies by a minimal amount and the coal companies have launched a full propaganda campaign which will likely result in a loss for labor this year. Sad because we'll let go basically free public transport, a functioning state healthcare system and a publicly owned renewable energy grid.
If you can verify that labor is dominated by property investors, then that is big. Otherwise, how about the possibility that they can only focus on a few issues at a time?
@mattl1250 Labor received $48 million through a subsidiary of Glencore to the CFMMEU then to Labor. But they want to stop coal mining? Net-Zero right? Why would u still vote Labor knowing they aren't actually doing anything to solve the energy, housing and cost of living crisis? We all know what needs to be done to ease the burden on Australians. You know this about Labor and yet you would still vote for them? We have more options then just the major parties. And some of them (can you believe it) actually put Australians first.
The fact you made an almost perfect trollface in the thumbnail is insane.

I love significant sections of the budget and the Labor changes to the Lib's stage 3 tax cuts are definitely sorely needed, but I hate that Jordies and some others have referred to it as a "tax cut of a generation". While the progressive tax system is defined in absolute numbers instead of being pegged to ratios of median income or at the very least, not changing with CPI each year, then the amount of tax Australians pay with the same real income increases each year. So then the Labor government can trot out another one of these in 10 years and claim to be giving us another tax cut. It's a propaganda machine that keeps giving and politicians waste time adjusting it constantly for votes rather than fixing the problem with a longer term view.
i love how the yilmaz voice comes in now and again
The level of comtempt for Australians by politicians and corporations is of the chart.😂

A massive thankyou FriendlyJordies for covering that bit about Queensland ❤️ its great to know
Jordan, Jordan, Jordan the reason why they say it does nothing for young people is because so many of them are living out of their car now and it sure doesn't help them get non-existent rentals. 300 bucks energy credit doesn't help you much unless you can use it for petrol to power your car heater.
Jordan has a country full of fans willing to let him couch-surf if he needed it.
However, the youth's reported words do directly contradict what the tax cuts literally are. It does point out that ignorance of the youth is a real problem. If they were less ignorant, their opinion would change because their opinion directly contradicts fact. That they may ask for something else or more in the short term is a different facet.
they could build more houses however, that might impact multiple of their property valuations
I want to pay my taxes.......if it paid for healthcare and my roads. Except I live in America where I was asked in the ER last week "are you still self pay honey?" and then I was sent home with a cyst on the back of my head that was making me feverish! Yet my taxes go to paying for Ukraine to enlist the infirmed and disabled, also so that Israel can continue it's genocide and have free healthcare. I work 105 hours a week to barely tread water and I am still trying to find ways to make money......how much more do they want from me FFS?!?

It's a pretty simple one Jordan. We haven't seen results and things are still getting shittier. When things get better, people will start changing their opinions.
And right now I'm pretty sure what most people care about is housing and immigration, which are still wildly out of control.

I dig up gold, its a tax-free income 🍺

10% rent assistance increase was like a $1 a day for the highest recipient... Chalmers has still deliberately left welfare recipients in poverty despite his own reviews recommendations.

buddy, change doesn't happen instantly, so many people think it "all or nothing" thats what happened with energy reforms where the libs wanted no change and the greens didn't think the changes were far enough so they voted against it. point is, don't winge about changes that are at the bear minimum are in the right direction. what would you rather have? a lib or labor government?
@@merlin5662 buddy, we saw during COVID that Governments can move heaven and earth when they want too.

@@MrPsychochickens oh I know what you mean, the problem here how you're message comes across. BC an uniformed person look at your comment and they take the attitude of "oh the Labor government is shit, let's vote liberal" which is precisely the problem that jordies talked about. I am all about holding the government accountable (even if it's labour) but you need to be careful how you frame it BC on a glance reading you may unintentionally illicit the response of "vote for the other party"
@@merlin5662 I don't understand how you could come to that conclusion, both issues raised are not policies of the Liberals, I'd be certain they would probably make the issues worse on purpose. But we need to break free of the binary two party analysis, our democracy is extremely representative and holds the potential for a multitude of parties to be elected and represent issues more effectively.
@@MrPsychochickens you misunderstand what I mean. The issue I have with your message is how it comes across. I have seen plenty of pro liberals write similar comments that my mind draws to, you add "vote liberal" at the end and it sells it.
I am not disagreeing with you about your point (I am not too informed of what you speak of specifically) i am having issues with how it is conveyed. I agree, we are stuck in a binary party system that we need to break out of. But we are so used to shitting on Labor for not doing their job (which they do a far better job than the libs) and people's immediate mind is to vote for the other party.
This is the part of the video I am referencing, people don't really understand that these changes are going to help Australians and since they don't see it, they default to voting for other party (libs in the case).
I am not saying you can't criticise the Labor government, I am saying that an uninformed viewer will read this and their mind will default for the other party, that is the social engineering that the media has done over the last couple of decades. Does that make sense
I genuinely don't understand why individuals who commit tax fraud get much, much harsher prison sentences than individuals convicted for violent crimes.
ideally it would be to harshly disincentivize the very richest from getting away with tax evasion, but eventually corruption creates loopholes.
Tax evasion hurts everybody in the country. Violent crimes only hurt a few. Utilitarianism.
1) Depends on what you mean by violent crime but it generally doesn't
2) If it does it'd be because the tax evasion comes with a bunch of other crimes to allow for said tax evasion
Because that's what the government actually cares about
It's... More complicated than that, but still true. A lot of it is a product of violent crimes being less clearly defined and harder to prove. Tax evasion is a concrete, clearly defined crime that can be easily demonstrated without much room for plausibility of denial or severity, intent, etc. This is why Al Capone famously got tried for tax crimes. We have high standards for violent crimes and the mob is good at distancing them from the actual crime itself, so that while it is definitely known that the crime occurred and it is known that the mob was involved, it is hard to prove in a definite and legal and technical sense that al capone was specifically involved in this specific way as defined by x law. And even when they are found guilty, there's still far more room in being able to negotiate lower sentences on those same technicalities. I'm not a lawyer though so, if someone with credentials has something to correct then please do.
There's more to it but broadly it's not *just* the government being self-interested, though that absolutely is part of it.
Polls? meh
I'm sceptical of any poll I haven't participated in myself
who paid for the poll, who is taking the poll and how the poll is used... very important to lending any credence to a poll.
Why does being one of the 2000+ participants in the poll alleviate your scepticism? I would still be just as sceptical.
@@friendlyfella364 at least I would then know they polled real people and how they distributed the poll
Also my statement isn't mutually exclusive
@@MartinOlminkhof I appreciate it's not mutually exclusive, I am just being SUPER specific here as I used to do opinion polling and I don't want a casual reader to think being polled means the poll is more trustworthy.
Like, opinion poll manipulation is almost never the organisation just not asking anyone and making it up. Like at least 99% of the time it's not that. Push polling, grouping, secret methodology that fudges the numbers, and sampling bias, are how it's done and you can only really know if they push polled from being polled yourself.
All I mean to say is, if you're polled and the questions are sus, then you should be more sceptical of the poll results, but being polled should never make you less sceptical, as it doesn't address any of the real problems with rigging polling.
There's only one poll that matters: election results.

I have seen some evidence that leads me to the theory that almost every GP avoids most tax. Business owned by a property trust with another family trust as beneficiary. Generating wealth is paywalled
"Rule #1: Don't ever talk about all tax being theft. Rule #2: Don't EVER talk about all tax being theft." - Rich Club
But tax being theft is a line EXCLUSIVELY pushed by the rich. It's the people with money to spare who want to pretend they don't owe anything back to society.
Wouldnt the rich, who support getting tax breaks, want to push the narrative that taxation is theft?
So that they can avoid accountability when they dont pay their fare share back to the communities they exploited to get rich. Yknow just sort of makes sense
it is tho. its theft. in the usa they started it with 'Its only top 1% that are going to be taxed.' Now if you make a single dollar it will be taxed. I was told its logical fallacy to think 'give an inch they will take a mile' now I realize its fallacy to assume they will not take the mile bc they always do.
@@tribalismblindsthembutnoty124 in america teachers are taxed more than billionaires. That is a failure of policy, sweden has high af taxes but they get so much more back in return.
Do you think billionaires should not give back to society when they have siphoned so much wealth from the average man and destroyed the planet in pursuit of profit?
So because poor people could be taxed we shouldnt worry about taxing people who could finance an entire country gotcha
Oh wait, youre just a temporarily embarrassed billionaire whos definitely gonna get lucky one day soon right? Right? Anyone can become a billionaire based of merit and bootstraps right?
@@belly2_me what are you talking about? Care to reread my comment? They started with 'only the 1% will be taxed' and now even the poorest are taxed. You are right that it is a failure of policy. It was a failure for us to allow it at all bc now its all of us that are taxed. Even the guy that made 1$, he had to pay 15c to social security which will be insolvent in three years! Why is it insolvent? Bc huge portions of it are paid out to ssi, which is disability for those under 65. Have you ever met anyone on ssi? How many of those work under the table? I have met at least 50 people on ssi, and about half were doing work for cash. I am no narc, so I don't report ppl, but taxation is theft, taken from those who work and given to those who don't.
The average house price in OZ just crossed $1m. That's the real reason no one can afford anything and is grumpy about everything. And neither party can do a thing about it.
Exactly. Don’t get me wrong, Jordan is right, the work Labor has done to help working class people is great.
But getting paid more and getting to keep more of what we make doesn’t feel like progress when large investments like a car or house still feel unreachable as ever, or when the prices of necessary stuff like food and petrol still seem inexcusably high due to price gouging. And neither big party has a solution to that.
Labor just say ‘it’s important and we’re working on it’ while being unable to find a solution, while Liberal refuse to come up with a solution and just scream ‘YA GOTTA INVEST IN NATURAL GAS, NATURAL GAS IS THE WAY FORWARD. OH, AND ITS ALL LABORS FAULT’
Labor is making sure employees are paid more during a cost of living crisis. Yes. Problem is, small business is struggling to exist. They are also experiencing a cost of operating crisis. The only ones who can afford to take the Labour hit are big corporations.
The minimum wage hike will kill small hospitality business.
Cafes and restaurants are struggling. It's great that workers are being paid more however when the business dies, these people don't have jobs and everyone goes to macdonalds for their latte.

I like the Punter's idea. Have Qatar levels on all gas exports and we could cut taxes for the low threshold, no tax at all. They could afford it. The Government would be so rich, they could abolish tax for all low income workers and still cut taxes and still afford a welfare state, have free Uni, pay the HECS, improve all Gov services, do Government properly, even have high speed rail. If we had Noway level taxes for the rich, including banks, we could do all of this and still be in surplus. We are being ripped off. Other countries are doing better
yes
This is great in theory; Norway model is a good example of it being done well. However, there are downfalls to the Qatar model. Look up 'dutch disease,' regarding a floating dollar and how you destroy all other export industries if you have one industry (i.e., gas/oil) that has a huge boom. There are cheques and balances to everything.
Zoids reference out of nowhere caught me very off guard. Thought everyone just forgot they existed
I was not expecting a Keffals mention 10 seconds into the video. That's some niche online politics drama right there.
I’m probably going to try and get some merch even though I’m American
I will be $2,080 better off with the tax cuts, which includes the $300 that is automatically applied to any energy bills I get.
Unfortunately, my rent will be up by $3,000, my rego will be up by 41% and insurance up 21%. So the majority of any tax relief I was getting, is going to people that can afford to own more than one house. Makes sense, we should foster greed.
There needs to be tax cuts to small businesses. It's brutal giving away nearly a quarter of what we make, while paying staff more. There needs to be a serious change.
You pay tax on your profits. That is money made AFTER you pay your bills (including wages).
Fucking small business need to shut up and pay your damn taxes. And while you are about it, pay your staff properly. Small business is responsible for over 70% of those stolen wages Jordy reported on in this video.
You cunts make me sick with your entitled attitude.
Shifting the burden onto the big, mega-profit companies would be a good thing... but apparently nobody would vote for that.
Yea its crazy how small businesses have to pay a quarter of their earnings to tax while individuals have to pay an average of 30% its insane. Small businesses shouldn't need to pay any tax and individuals should have to pay like 50%. Business owners are the people who keep australia running....not the people that actually do the work
@@wade4688 Bruh what, get rid of payroll tax for small business is the sensible step.
If you wanna go full postal, Remove all income tax and only have a point of sales tax.
@@RictusHolloweye there would be some Boeing style disappearances if they went after big corps
You should make a sticker that says doing lines of quokk with the boys or better than quokk that has a picture of a quokka on it.
Vote greens for weed legalisation
As an American, all this means little to me but the Zoids reference made it worthwhile.
"but,but,but being harsh on big companies means they'll have to raise their prices more!"
Probably going to be the number 1 sentiment on rebuking these changes soon enough.... The average voter isn't smart enough to be a responsible voter.
It’s I all heard from the old timer chef I worked with for 6 years everyday, “ bloody government stealing my money mate “
Ironically Peter Costello is no longer the chair of nine Fairfax
holy shit surprise Keffals
Transphobia!!
@@tuukka1827ah yes, because it's transphobia to criticise the person who stole hundreds of thousands of dollars from the trans community.
@@tuukka1827? ??
Nice Zoids reference at 4:37.
The man knows too much about Tazos...
Dankpods also bought some Tazos too down at Cashies
The subsidiary joke about "Toyco" was...how do the Americans say, "French Kiss".😘
wu tang.
Hey Wu!!!👍🏼
If everyone stopped paying taxes all at once the government cant do anything about it without picking a fight with the rest of the country.
Fighting the people will end very badly for them.
It's so funny how mad he is at greens lol
The Greens are far too much to the left. Can confirm that as an ex Greens supporter. The Greens are economically illiterate and spread too much misinformation like an unhinged rightist
My dumb American brain always forgets in Australia
Liberal Party = our conservative party and
Labor Party = our liberal party
They aren’t exact copies dude, not even close. Our “two-party” system in USA is basically a sham at this point anyway, both sides are in bed with the same megacorps.
Tax is an earning that the government uses to borrow more debt. No tax funds any program, debt does. Corporations under Australian jurisdiction that show profit give Australia a higher credit rating, so they can borrow more on each dollar collected in tax. More immigrants, more earning potential, more tax, more debt loans. easy.
I want the "diddy do it? Yes he diddy" shirt. Also went and checked out the store, i know where im gonna shop next week
I was not expecting a Keffels reference from my favorite Warhammer RUclipsr
Just some quick maths to drive your 9:00 point. Going from 20 to 30 is a 50% increase, not a third. Even more impressive
no matter what happens everybodies tax will always be going for those greedy rich bastards shit that does not help society in the slightest
I don't mind paying my fair share in tax but it's shit that multi million dollar business's pay less tax that I do. It's legalised crime.
I don't think The Voice vote helped them much
They're just rolling it out at a state level instead
It was a Liberal Party idea.
these videos need some easy to share visuals for social media and just things to send to your greens friends
Increased penalties? Great!
Now enforce them!
Jordy, you've gotta cover the up and coming UAP senator Babet
Fuck me I paid $24,654 in tax so far, only took 50+ hours a week. I believe as a country we need to have a look at how tax works around overtime.
-sounds to me like the labor party has a market in america- never said it. never even _thought_ it. and a certain tube full of you misrepresenting the numbers - 676 views netting the post 1.5k likes..?
@@old_grey_cat youtube updates the views count every 48 hours? don't believe it lol, because here we are "4 hours" after the upload, "3 hours" after i posted the count of 676, and "1 hour" after your reply - and the count shows 46,485. as far as i can tell, none of those numbers are reliable. that's basically what i meant by "misrepresenting the numbers."
took me a couple minutes of just moving slow to post this and lol now the count is 51,930.
