Support for changes to superannuation
Q. A recent report suggested that superannuation be changed so that everyone paid tax on their superannuation at 15 cents in the dollar less than their marginal rate of tax. That would mean a low income earner paying 21% tax would pay 6% on their super while a high income earner paying 49% tax would pay 34% on their super? Would you support or oppose this change to super?
