Using clip art! It's not even a program from this decade. That's how far behind they are. It was absolutely silly and childish.

What we've done is sit down and look at the mess that we were left by those opposite, and we've actually formulated a budget that helps people. People will be able to see a doctor. People fleeing family violence can get a house. People on low incomes can get a house—all these opportunities to go forward. Yet we keep hearing the wailing and the screaming and the carry on about billionaires getting tax cuts. What the Greens have proposed is people earning $45,000 a year do not deserve a tax cut. That is exactly what they've said, and they've tried to claim that's the billionaires. Well, I can tell you that people earning 45 grand a year do not own three investment properties.
