Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Prime Minister) (14:27): We are reducing tax by some $5.4 billion. But it is interesting, is it not, that members opposite are obsessed by the tax burden—because they live on 'planet tax'. That is where they live; they all live on 'planet tax'. There is their carbon tax; there is their mining tax; there are all the superannuation taxes that they inflicted in government and that they want to inflict again on the retirees of Australia; and then there is the Leader of the Opposition's own special tax—the piggy bank tax. Do you remember that? Do you remember the piggy bank tax? This was about all the retirees and all the kids who did not have very active bank accounts, and the Leader of the Opposition's clammy hand went into their pockets and he trousered the money. The Leader of the Opposition's stealthy fingers reached for the hammer and he smashed open the piggy bank and he trousered the money. This man is the taxing expert of our county. Ms Owens interjecting— The SPEAKER: The member for Parramatta will leave under 94(a) for one hour. The member for Parramatta then left the chamber. Mr ABBOTT: By contrast, last year we scrapped the carbon tax and we scrapped the mining tax. This year, there is a 1.5 per cent tax cut for incorporated small business, there is a five per cent tax discount for unincorporated small business and there is instant asset write-off for all small business. As far as I am concerned, every coalition budget should be a tax-cutting budget. We think that the more money we save for the people of Australia—the more of your money that stays in your pockets—the better for everyone. No-one knows how to spend money more wisely than the people who made it. No-one knows better how to spend money wisely than the people who earned it in the first place by the sweat of their brow and by the ingenuity of their minds. It belongs to the people who made it; it does not belong to the stealthy tax-grabbers opposite—the sneaks who will come in in the middle of the night and take money from inactive bank accounts. The pensioners, the kids and the small business people of Australia deserve more money in their pockets and they deserve less tax, and that is what they have under this government. That is in contrast to members opposite. If the Leader of the Opposition ever became Prime Minister, the carbon tax would be back, the mining tax would be back, there would be more raids on your superannuation accounts—and of course Swannie would be back, because he is now running the election policies.
