Keep hammering on about the top 1% as it does **** all for your point to select a small sample and accuse them of being responsible for all the world's ills
The reality is they are successful at what they do and you are envious as all ****
Us on the right don't give a **** about them and nor should we
Always bizarre how you leftists want to demonize the exact thing you want to become
Plus the 1% pay plenty of taxes
You just think they should be paying more because you want to subsidise the weak
No one said it was exclusive to the left
It though is a problem that afflicts the left more than any other
Free Health
Free Education
Free this Free that
But when it comes time to pay the bill they have no answer other than day tax the rich
Which ain't any solution as they won't want to work hard if they can't be successful
You're mistaking more tax with equal tax. If they paid the same tax rate that I do there'd be no issue. Your right wing pollies keeps giving all those rich, supposedly successful business owners more help than anyone else, and then they trick idiots into thinking it's the welfare recipients and immigrants draining resources.
Are you ****ing serious?
What happens if you're born in poverty, have an accident, disabled, support Arsenal?
I can tell you now. This country is ****ed.
Australia should be about everyone having a fair crack at life. Yet we pay our unemployed and amount that is less than what a politician gets as an allowance for being in Canberra doing their ****ing job.
Get the **** out of here member.

the leeches are the ones making the rules in Parliament. no way they are costing themselves a damn dollar.
you think any of shortens planned negative gearing changes were gonna get voted in when such a large % of the parliament utilises the scheme?
by sheer nature of being in that room, every politician, department head and major consultant are automatically in the top 5% of income earners.
they are the rich that you despise, but you cant vote them out because another 'rich' person just jumps in the seat.
the idea of 'taxing the rich' will never, ever ever work. not because its the wrong ideal, but its asking the 'rich' to volunteer their money. and life dont work like that.
That the world we live in
It ain't ****ing fair and balanced
If you want to achieve anything in life bend your back and have a go
Plenty of places in the world exist with out welfare
Guess what happens there ??
The locals get off their arse and earn a $ or they don't eat
Here we have a nation of lazy unemployed ****s who are also fat ****s to boot
How the **** does that happen??
Welfare and immigrants are a drain on resources that there is no doubt
But the biggest drain on resources in this country is the bureaucracy in the government
That costs us billions every year yet you want to moan about people minimising their tax as some giant issue
The reality is that the rich are the ones paying the taxes now
They are paying more than their share and getting the least out of the system
It the lower end of society paying the least and then using the most and then bleating about how hard done they are whilst they have blokes like Skirt Boy championing their cause of being lazy
The Dole. Do you want to know why it is kept so low? Because it forces people into shitty employment and gives big business all the power because if you lose your job. What is the alternative?
This is why we have the casualisation of the workforce. This is why we have so much part time work. This is why companies have been caught out underpaying staff.
And this is just the Dole.......................
because employees have never lied to their bosses, ever.
nope. all one way traffic there chief.
there are shit bosses, there are shit employees, then there are shit government sponsored schemes possibly designed in good faith but exploited (legally) by employers (like Grill'd) because guess what, employers want to make more money every year just like their workers do.
I wish I lived in your world member.
You envy 3rd world countries, yet you seem to forget that the only reason your enjoy them is because our economy gulfs theirs. So you get to put in a quarter of their effort for 10 times the pay. Then you talk about lazy people not working hard enough.
The rich pay more than their share? So when I pay over 40% in tax and big business pays about 26% on average how's that their fair share? (Westfarmers, Coles etc). Please explain that one too me?
You should live in my world
It called reality
Company tax and individual tax are too separate classes
You trying to compare apples with oranges there pal
May I though point out that Coles Westerners etc are paying hundreds of millions in tax. I don't think you are contributing anywhere near that amount
Thailand isn't a 3rd world country
The ****ing internet works there
The signal drops out numerous times on the Sydney to Newy train line in 2019 FFS
You want to keep hammering on about the unfairness of the situation
I ask then you to suggest an alternative to capitalism because that is your big bug bear here. You are just bitter as you think capitalism fails
I do look forward to your reply to see how close it is to socialism
Floor is yours
