“For example, the Australia Institute suggests the government could wind back some of its subsidies to private schools, saving up to $21 billion a year. Or, it could reduce superannuation tax breaks for high income earners, giving it back $65 billion in forgone revenue.
The government could also abolish the luxury car tax exemption for big utes, saving $250 million a year for vehicles which impose substantial costs on society including higher carbon emissions, road damage and safety risks.”

or for distances more than a few kilometres, an ebike
