"We should be looking at better ways to be supporting families with children." Leading demographer Professor Peter McDonald says Australia's tax system is unfair for families.

In 2022/23 ONLY 44% of families were recipients. For more tune in to The Issue Podcast on Youtube, 7Plus or the LiSTNR app. #theissue #demographics #auspolitics
