@InsurgoFormica@aus.social 62% of people have no concept of the future, risk, compound returns, maths, which is why super exists in the form it does in the first place, but yeah, your point stands. Those 62% won't understand why their pay hasn't gone up, either. #auspol

@InsurgoFormica@aus.social the least financially astute workers are the ones who will choose to take some of their super as pay. They don't realise they'll pay *much* more tax on it (up to 30% more, depending on how much they get paid), so the coalition gets to raise taxes on ordinary working class people without the bad optics, which will allow them to fund yet another round of tax cuts for the wealthiest in the country.

@InsurgoFormica@aus.social It was already in lieu of a pay rise. Thieving bastards gonna thieve, aren't they.
