    Your Beer is Taxed more than Gas Giants

    Is Your Friday Night Schooner doing more for the economy than Multinational gas giants? In this episode, we dive into the staggering revelations from recent Senate Estimates that have left taxpayers reeling. While the average Australian is feeling the pinch of the cost-of-living crisis, new data suggests that beer excise is projected to rake in $2.7 billion for the 2025-26 period—outstripping the tax contributions of some of the world’s largest gas corporations by a massive $1.2 billion. ​We pull back the curtain on the Labor government’s "smoke and mirrors" tax reforms. From the original promise of raising $10.8 billion over four years to the quiet revision down to just $6.3 billion, we ask the hard questions: ​Why are everyday Aussies propping up the country more than "gas giants plundering our resources"? ​Is the current tax system a "web of loopholes" designed to fail? ​What happened to the "tough" new system promised back in 2024? ​Join us as we break down the numbers, the political grandstanding, and why the price of your beer has become a symbol of a broken fiscal system. ​"It’s not incompetence; it’s by design."

We encourage you to do your own research before forming any conclusions ​#AusPol #AustralianEconomy #TaxReform #CostOfLiving #BeerTax #GasTax #beer #Onenation #SenateEstimates #LaborParty #PRRT #EconomicsExplained #AustraliaNews #davidpocock
