That's not actually one that pissess me off: specifically interest deductibility.

Demanding cost cuts from health, education, disabilities support, "cracking down on beneficiaries" and generally shitting all over the most vulnerable members of our society... Just to build a few more kilometres of motorways and "celebrate our most successful" with tax cuts.
