Those opposite interject on the issue of taxes. Last time we changed the tax system, we cut taxes. We cut income taxes. We cut state taxes. We cut taxes right across the board. I notice when those opposite came to office, they did not put those taxes back. They did not go back because they knew that when you have a tax system change that is done by a government that knows how to support jobs and growth, you do not go back and reverse those things and they never reversed any of them because—even though they would never admit it—the tax system changes of 2000 helped the economy and made for a stronger Australia.
