Tax reform an opportunity to act on climate, inequality
The Greens say any change to Australia's tax system must be progressive, correcting rising inequality and acting on global warming.
"The whole point of tax is to raise the revenue we need to pay for the Australian society we want: caring, innovative, healthy, and protected from the impacts of global warming" said Greens Leader Christine Milne.
"That means ending taxpayer support of polluting fossil fuels; it means actually collecting the tax owed by corporate Australia and multi-nationals, and it means closing tax loopholes for the richest among us.
