Besides the big end of town complaints and Duttons bullshit tax free entertainment plan for bussiness- basically to boost the biggest pub owners profits.
He had no clue about the real world, esp. the 12 mth only excise drop compared to all taxpayers getting a permanent cut. That just fostered more car/ mega ute use. So more traffic and greater commute times with more pollution and oil profits.
Work from home has actually increased productivity, reduced traffic peaks, reduced pollution and greatly added to family life. It also saved a lot of travel/ car expenses.
For working parents it meant not needing to spend most of your wage on childcare, if you can get a place.
Fundamentally it has been a social policy boom and economically a success. It also provides a more balanced life for parents and kids.
For tradies it means lower travel times and owners are available when you come to do work at homes.
It's a Work to Live policy.
Live to Work is LNP DNA, they hate the idea of workers having any power.
For a so called liberal/national party of small government they sure love telling us how to live, what to think and spending public money on private profits.
