Australia, my country, has universal healthcare. Spends much less per capita than the US with much better outcomes on every measure.

The chance of successive government's not adjusting the tax brackets prior to 2038 is approximately 0. It's the favourite thing of a treasurer to do. nitter.cf/E61Institute/status/21…
Bracket creep will lift the average worker’s tax rate from 20.5% to 24.1% by 2038, and the increases are uneven across incomes. New e61 research looks at who bears the cost.🧵
ALT Line chart of effective tax rates (excluding the Medicare levy) by gross taxable income, in FY26 dollars, from $0 to $200k. Rates in FY38 are higher than in FY28 at every income level above about $18k. A worker on $100k faces a 20.5% rate in FY28. With inflation alone, that same worker would face 22.6% in FY38. A worker whose income grows with the overall economy by FT38 would face a tax rate of 24.1%.

Great days!
Asbestos fibro roofs & walls.
Lead-based paints.
No smoke-detectors.
No circuit-breakers.
No fire safety standards.
No insulation.
Mercury-oxide coloured mortar.
High lead content in plumbing items.
No OH&S.

“Red tape” is what took asbestos out of our houses, and lead out of our drinking water. But sure…
