To be fair, they at least want to end negative gearing, capital gains discount and ensure companies pay their fair share of tax.

There's better options but I'll still preference them over the major parties

But for every fiscally responsible policy they put out there, there is some other policy that is completely unworkable.

Still, unworkable policies are still better than no policy.

And if the Greens were in power, they would probably attract the more progressive and fiscally responsible politicians into their ranks, which would result in more practical policies.

Edit: I do vote for the Greens first in every election (after any other special interest parties that are more appealing) and the LNP last (ahead of any fascist parties that are less appealing).

The more Green preferences ahead of the major Party’s, the better.
