    Mining Tax Grab - How will it pan out?

    Why is it fair to tax a group 10% more than other companies. The banks make billions of dollars and with government guantees and they are not forced to pay more tax. What about the mobile phone industry making billions or any other industry. If they want to go after people for daring to take...

    Mining Tax Grab - How will it pan out?

    WA government are threatning to take it to the high court. The reason being is that the federal government can't do a rent type tax on minerals on shore.

    Mining Tax Grab - How will it pan out?

    Mining Tax Grab - How will it pan out?

    The Gillard government is the one in real diabolical trouble now. The coal seam case comes under 40% new tax. Their goes the Qld vote. In any case the federal government is not allowed to do rent taxes on-shore. They can only do that off shore. It will certainly lose in the high court...

    Mining Tax Grab - How will it pan out?

    Wasn't that the Rudd deal ? Still bad for the country with another global financial crisis on the way. Our government is taking a huge gamble especially when in Afganistan they've found one of the richest iron ore deposits in the world estimated at $1 trillion US dollars. That is only a...

    Gillard for PM?

    This is my first post so be kind. I think she will go the same way as Rudd, into unemployment. Is there a forum about the super tax in here or elsewhere. Been trying to find one, but no luck. I want to know what this so called new deal is about. Thanks in advance.

    Does Gillard inspire confidence?

    This is my first post in here so be kind. Been trying to find a forum on the super tax. In there a forum on aussie stock forum only talking about this blasted super tax ? She'll go the same way as Krudd did. She's to vain to be PM. Her face looks as though she's had a face lift and her...
