AnjaKolibri although those present got it right : “I hear people talking the language of participation and justice and equality and transparency. ' that cretin of historian dares to think that ' all it takes is money'.

AnjaKolibri no, the solution is equality, in everything, taxes included. an irrelevant idiot had an idea once again.

15 hr week and open world borders. This fella is a true dreamer!

End welfare and taxation

Ever wondered why billionaire globalist media owners side with the socialist Left? Feminist journalists only part of the answer. Billionaire media owners want open borders & weak sovereignty so it’s easier to avoid tax by moving profits around the globe.

Come the revolution

it’s tax avoidance that’s the problem - they don’t pay their fair share or shuffle money into trust funds etc - if the Govt recouped what was actually owed to the Australian tax payer - things would be ok taxes Election2019

Terrible piece. Capital is mobile. If you tax high, money moves elsewhere. This “historian” is poor copy at best. And -a populist blogger site these days- republished his nonsense to please the ignorance of the public.

This is the secret that everyone knows tax Concession to everyone and anyone but not the poor and our prime minister he’s doing the same being a Liberal when the wages they have been stagnated for the last 10 years they’ve been in the government this is the truth of the matter

The gross inequity of wealth distribution needs to be corrected. Those who decry this mans message of 'tax the rich' might read up on the alternatives used at similar tipping points in history. They may need to worry about their necks more than their wallets.

Sooooooo tax everyone who works!, tax the west, tax the Middle East!, tax a business more that is better than its rivals!........? Tax all who have more then others. Who's going to define rich?

Define what is rich....do they already pay tax.

Is tax being paid on 100% of the profits made from the raw product, coal, that was mined in Australia, regardless of how that coal is sold to an overseas market.
