I have a supplementary question. Minister, your colleague the Treasurer, who often accuses his political opponents of waging class warfare, this week claimed the average Australian has to work for a month to pay for the welfare of his or her fellow Australians. Minister, can you confirm the reports today that the average Australian works for two days to pay for the unemployment benefits of others but nearly 10 days to pay for tax concessions that go to the wealthy?
