I have collected a total of 4 months of unemployment benefits from Centrelink in my life, when I have worked since I was 15.

I've collected none, therefore my opinion is worth more than yours since I've received less assistance.

I am all for scraping the stage 3 tax cuts, because I know that the money I get from the tax cut will be more than offset by the ever increasing costs of living - including the social cost of having more and more people struggling.

It is petty and small minded to be supporting a set of tax cuts because you want an extra slice of cake, when the majority of the benefit will go to someone who already owns a bakery.
