>>14721257Latham (a former labor shadow PM) is right, abolishing negative gearing and franking credits (what Australia really needs) would cost them the election again, as it did in 2019 (if you assume it wasn't rigged), because the Boomer electorate (who make up some 60% of all voters in Australia) would be immensely displeased.
At the end of the day, unless your politics are geared towards the interests of 60-year-olds, you're not getting into power democratically in Australia, and that will be the case until the Boomer cohort finally dies off in the next decade or two.
