Ok, im reading the section on it and ill try and condense since i'm not to sure either haha
so i'm actually glad u asked.
It does state that there is no perfect equality in the Distribution of Income in market economies like Australia (obviously). It goes on to talk of how the gov't has a resposibilty to redistubute income from the rich to the poor in order to alleviate absolute and relative poverty.
BUT... it stated 'the objective is not to create a perfectly equal distribution of income, but to reduce the extent of inequality"
BY; provding transfer payments to disadvataged social groups
making the taxation system progressive
using a proportion of tax revenure to finance spending on elemtns of the social wage such as public education, health, house and community services
Reduceing the incidence of poverty traps through the selective targeting of welfare assisstance, and by providing tax relief thought the tax-transfer system for low income H/H
HOPEFULLY THIS IS ENOUGH, IF NOT WRITE BACK ITS ALL GOOD
NOT SURE IT NEEDED THIS MUCH WRITTEN ABOUT IT SINCE THIS IS PRETTY MUCH ALL THE STUDY IM DOING (IN THE GAME).. WHY NOT
