The generations, suburbs and jobs most likely to win or lose from the revised stage 3 tax cuts

An act of class warfare or a bid to ensure "no one is left behind"? The Labor government's dramatic redesign of the Stage 3 tax cuts has been accused of "pitting one Australian against the other" – and it's clear that there will be winners and losers. In the 2021 financial year, about 99 per cent of Gen Z's 1.9 million workers had taxable incomes below $150,000, according to Australian Tax Office figures. Roughly 88 per cent of Gen X's 4.2 million workers will receive a bigger tax cut under the new plan than the original. "The original stage 3 tax cuts were essentially very good for very rich men and not so good for everyone else," says Australia Institute chief economist Greg Jericho.
