Minister, the Treasurer has just told Australians that, because inflation is rising, they should brace for higher unemployment and further real wage cuts. But the Treasurer said nothing about what corporations who are earning record profits should brace for. Why is the government telling those who can least afford it to brace for yet more pain yet we are hearing nothing at all from the Treasurer about what the profiteering corporations should brace for?
