Wong won't rule out super raid Finance Minister Penny Wong has declined to rule out axing tax concessions for superannuation in the May budget. "I've danced this dance over a few years," she told ABC radio on Tuesday, referring to pre-budget speculation. Sacked cabinet minister Simon Crean has warned that raising taxes on super would trash Labor's legacy in setting up compulsory superannuation. "You can't be taxing people's surpluses built up in a super fund to pay for our surplus," he told The Financial Review. Shadow assistant treasurer Mathias Cormann said the government should heed the advice of Mr Crean and stop the class warfare attack on hardworking people saving for retirement. "Simon Crean is right to be highly critical of Labor's high taxing agenda targeting superannuation," he said in a statement, adding the government should not use people's retirement savings like an ATM to fund wasteful and reckless spending. " (Treasurer) Wayne Swan should plug the massive budget black hole he created by making genuine and honest savings, not by forcing Australian super savers to pay the price for his fiscal incompetence," he said. Opposition Leader Tony Abbott said the government shouldn't touch superannuation in the budget. " (It's) less than 50 days to the coming budget and this is a government that needs to get its $300 billion worth of debt under control," he told reporters in Sydney. And they've got to get debt under control by eliminating unnecessary government spending, not by raiding peoples' superannuation savings, not by attacking the superannuation piggy bank.
