Sounds logical, until you're 70 years old working at a Macca's to afford food.

No, it's absolutely incompetent to do that, as we have to rely on this to retire.

Just remember guys somebody makes billions out of your superannuation at the moment. They don’t want that to stop.

no, that's literally the dumbest policy I've ever seen in a long while, not only will the unlocking of all that super add fuel to the fire of rising house prices it has the double whammy of destroying millions of people's retirement blasting up debt even further as now the government would have to pay millions of people's retirement directly instead of through super.

Absolutely not. That’s hundreds of thousands of dollars less at retirement and more reliance on the aged pension. No thank you! It seems superannuation literacy is extremely low in Australia…

might be the only option to actually get the pension after paying tax your whole life especially after labor destroyed negative gearing

Has happened in NZ and has helped some first home buyers, but ultimately led to higher prices
