This is unfair for people who have already saved/invested. They paid the higher income tax rates initially and they would pay higher tax rates on their retirement nest eggs.

This government can't even sell the idea that we should talk to indigenous people about indigenous issues. So I have little faith they'll get through significant tax changes.
