About this episode
Some young people are furious, saying they'll have to rethink their financial planning due to the government's proposed changes to the capital gains tax discount.
That's because the changes aren't just applicable to property - but investments like ETFs and crypto.
They say the government is stopping them from reaping the rewards previous generations had access to - or is it evening the playing field, like the government suggests?
And this weekend athletes from around the world compete in an 'Olympics'-style event where doping is allowed. Are the Enhanced Games the future of human performance, or a dangerous PR stunt?
