    Thankfully the Morrison govt is going to be turfed out
    on Saturday and we wont have to put up with policies introduced
    in panic in the last week before the election. The fact they announced
    this after a week of over a million people having already voted emphasises
    that it's just a a last minute panic thought bubble.

    This superannuation policy aimed at first home buyers
    would certainly cause confusion in the superannuation industry.
    Under the plan whatever amount you take out of super has to be
    put back into super when you sell the home including a share of the
    capital gain on the home. Mindboggling stuff.

    "Whatever amount is invested will be returned to your
    super when you sell the home, including the share of
    the capital gain from the sale of that home."
