Voting Yes - costs nothing and won’t do any harm and it might do some good.

Theoretically it could actually save a lot of money long-term. That’s why many conservatives also support the Voice, because it is ultimately a fiscally conservative proposal. The claim some Australians have made that the Voice is a “waste of taxpayer money during a cost of living crisis” is the complete opposite of reality. If people actually care about the economy, and aren’t just using it as a smokescreen to hide their more controversial oppositions to the Voice, they should be voting Yes in this referendum to help government create more efficient and less financially wasteful Indigenous affairs policies.
