Dental care is at the center of a major debate between political parties in Australia.
The Australian Green Party has determined that they want to invest more money in dental care. The Labor Party, however, wanted to lower tax rates for small businesses and increase the savings for retired citizens. This plan would also involve a mining tax, which is called the Minerals Resource Rental Tax.
The Green Party already agreed to the plan that would invest more in dental care, and that’s where the problem arises. The type of dental care being discussed involves universal care.
The problem is that the Labor Party already agreed to a deal with the mining companies.
More issues will come to the forefront now if the Labor Party has to back out on its negotiation. Dental care has been a point of emphasis for Bob Brown, one of the Green Party leaders, because Australia’s dental system has not fully provided the necessary care that people need.
This situation has caused a backlash from the Australian people. It’s unclear now what will happen with their dental care.
