Title: Labor destroys business for start up companies.
Post by bobbythebat1 on May 31st, 2013 at 1:52pm
How many new start up companies have been destroyed by Labor's tax?
You can get taxed on shares that may be worthless one day -
taxed before you even cash them in.
See the example below.

It stinks & shows Labor wants to destroy all business & destroy our country.

Why does Labor want to destroy our country?


http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-05-30/start-ups-say-tax-laws-are-crippling-their-viability/4724090


Quote:
The ABC understands the Federal Government has been forced to look for a fix to tax laws which start-ups say are crippling their viability.

At the CeBIT business technology exhibition in Sydney, it was a talking point among the 100 start-ups that gathered to show off their wares.

Fast growth companies, or start-ups, have been complaining since 2009 about what they say are complex and onerous laws surrounding Employee Share Option Programs (ESOPs).

ESOPs are a critical currency for luring talent away from big companies with the promise of big rewards if the business is sold.

But unlike in the United States, the shares are taxed from the moment they are offered - despite not having any real value.

For instance, imagine you joined a start-up worth $1 million with a salary of $50,000 and a 10 per cent share of the company.

You could not cash that 10 per cent share in until the company is sold in the future.

In the eyes of the tax man, your income is $150,000, even though you only earned a $50,000 salary.

After the tax office has taken its share of $43,447, you are left with just $6,553.

"It's like walking into a newsagency, buying a lotto ticket for $10 and then having to pay another $100 in case you win," said Mick Liubinskas, the chief executive of Pollenizer.

Pollenizer is a company working to foster the development of start-ups in Australia.

"When you're starting a brand new company you're starting with typically no money - so you've got a big idea, lots of potential ... but there's no money," Mr Liubinskas said.

"What you do is carve up the company and you share it between you.

"Where it becomes really difficult is when you start to have some success...when you've got some value but you don't have enough cash but you're trying to lure someone away from a big salary."

Norton Rose lawyer Nick Abrahams says copying the model in the United States would be the best solution.

"In a nutshell, the American laws tax employee share options when the employee exercises the option," he said.

"So once you exercise the option you would then have money so you would be able to pay the tax."

It's understood Communications Minister Stephen Conroy's update to the National Digital Economy Strategy will consider the issue.

The strategy is expected to be released in a few weeks.

Explains why there are little hi-tech startups operating in this country :(

They prefer to put 13 billion a year back into the pockets of property hoarders and speculators through negative gearing tax rorts instead of creating real jobs based on new ideas and inventions from prospective startups. It's little wonder why we don't have companies of the likes of google and apple here and why they have to keep doling out bribe money to get foreign car companies to make cars for us :(

And note how they are taxing the notional value of the shares which are only really valuable when the business has got off the ground and proved to be successful which could take years. Meanwhile how do you pay your bills with worthless shares ? The government is like a bunch of grave robbers :(

This place is well and truly f.cked :(

Yes Nail,
no wonder jobs are going overseas - the tax rules in this country just see any business
as a cash cow for a bankrupt Government.
The Govt. will drain any business dry & wreck it.

This Labor Govt. is anti-business & anti-jobs.

No wonder just about everyone I know has lost their job.

Even a small business with only  20 employees has to hire an accountant
full time to try to ensure that tax laws are complied with -
what a waste of money for any business.

Now many more businesses will have to send their tax off monthly instead of once per year.

Farmers have to pay provisional tax for crops that are not even in the ground.
They have to borrow money to pay the tax or the tax Dept. will sue them in court
& take their farm from them - that's if the bank doesn't do it first.

This whole country is being destroyed by outrageous tax laws.

We will all be down at Centerlink before long.

I hope that Tony Abbott will fix these crazy laws when he comes to power & get the economy moving again.

One analysts has suggested that the Libs could massively increase their already large lead by promising a wide range of small business reforms of which this is just one example. even a labor-leaning small business owner being hampered by labors anti-business, pro-union, pro regulation regime could be moved the liberal side by a policy to make things easier for them. and that is without a relaxation of the IR laws that are draconian in many ways already.

It's not just start up companies that end up impacted by some of rescinding if grants implemented by the Federal Labor Party.

In their mad rush attempt to get their much desired surplus the Federal Labor Government detailed to us (and all of our competitors) that R&D grants on streamlining of energy delivery, of improvement in shale fracking processes, of offshore exploration within Australian waters, would all be either cut or completely removed.

This had the effect of millions of dollars falling on industry - while the Government continues to reap the rewards of this R&D work.
This has hit the smaller exploration companies in Australia who end up needing to team with the bigger multi nationals just to stay afloat.

In recent meetings the industry had with Julie Bishop and Josh Frydenberg, it seems there will be a likelihood these grants will come back and make Australia again a more attractive place to carry out R&D.

The current Government I have to say have been disappointingly short sighted - particularly with the energy industry - in it's need to deliver a short term surplus and without thinking of how cuts they make will impact the longer term future.

well why didn't they reform this one then and give startups a fair go  ? and why don't they do something about the 13 billion dollar a year negative gearing tax rorts on property ? I mean can I startup a vegetable patch in my garden and register it as a business and then write off the losses against the income from my day job in case the crop fails etc ?

The liberals are just as bad as labor when it comes to small business :(

yes and the key word here is "promising". that's all they are is promises whilst they will still give concessions to property hoarders and speculators as well as foreign car corporations. We will never see innovation in this country as long as the housing-hoarding mentality is live and well. That's what labor and liberal both stand for. Doling out huge money to unprofitable foreign car corporations and calling that their manufacturing policy :(

I just found out that the Govt. doesn't call it provisional tax anymore -
it's called PAYG tax - still it's the same thing.

Stronger measures

We take firmer action against taxpayers who are unwilling to work with us to address their tax debt or repeatedly default on agreed arrangements.

Even when we have started to implement stronger measures, including legal action, we are willing to work with taxpayers to help them address their tax debt.

We do not take firmer action if you are complying with an agreed payment arrangement, including lodging and paying current obligations on time.

Stronger measures include:
• garnishee notices
•director penalty notices
•legal action, specifically a
◦claim or summons
◦bankruptcy notice
◦creditor's petition
◦statutory demand
◦wind-up action.




Quote:
Director penalty notice

Company directors have a legal responsibility to ensure that their company meets its pay as you go (PAYG) withholding and superannuation guarantee charge (SGC) obligations.

The director of a company that fails to meet a PAYG withholding or SGC liability in full by the due date automatically becomes personally liable for a penalty equal to the unpaid amount.



The Tax department is ruthless.
They will even wind up your business & can even make a director personally liable
when he's running a LTD company - limited liability.
I think Stalin would have been proud of them.

It's ironical that gillard decides to create a whole lot of NDIS public servant jobs in geelong to replace the manufacturing jobs lost by Ford  which was just another billion dollar tax payer gamble that never paid off :(

Perhaps if labor stopped this charade of taxing the sh.t out of small startups and stealing from Universities whilst putting money into the pockets of property hoarders then geelong could have created lots of REAL jobs from nurturing small start-ups with innovative ideas just like how Tesla Motors started !!

But of course labor and liberal won't do this because they are inherently corrupt and believe in gambling australia's future by selling off the farm to foreign corporations and putting all of their money on the one mining horse which is now losing  :(

Yes Nail,
the tax dept. - Labor - is just not interested in helping small business.
They want to tax them before they make any money.
PAYG tax takes money before it's made &
taxing  shares in a business that might be worthless by the time it's sold
is a shocking way to undermine business.
A new employee can't be offered a share bonus.
It looks like that stupid rule might be changed -
maybe before the election.

Not only that Andrei,
the financial controller at work told me that there were
about 40 different taxes & charges that applied to our company -
I don't know them all but some that come to mine:

payroll tax ,
land tax,
company tax,
GST,
forced payment of public liability insurance,
work cover insurance,
auditing charges  etc

add the rest on if you know them.

We had to employ a team of financial people to try & control these taxes & charges -
called a compliance cost - about $250,000 per year.


It all means that business is not encouraged in Australia.

Hell, on our balance sheet, we have several patents relating to electric vehicle parts!


so what are these parts and where are these EV parts used ??  patent numbers ?

and are the patents like the chevron/cobasys EV battery patent which they won't license out to any EV manufacturers which by the way is an abuse of the patent system ?

You'll find its not.

Holding a patent and preventing licensing to non approved, aligned groups is an intrinsic part of patenting and protection of IP.

The fact is that if you work for a boss in Australia you only get about
half the money you should as the rest ends up with the tax department.
All the money that is milked out of the business is money you can't get in your salary.

The Govt. robs every worker & discourages business.
It's 4 times cheaper to make a car in South east Asia than it is to make at Ford.


Look how manufacturing has declined in Australia - along with most other western style countries:

http://www.rbnz.govt.nz/speeches/5150125.html





I think it's only 7% now in Australia.
Manufacturing has died under the excessive taxes in this country.
The Govts. - both Labor & Liberal - just sat back & watched it die while they
introduced more & more taxes to make it less competitive.

This tax on people who start up companies being taxed on unsold share options is outrageous
& does even more to destroy our industry.

We don't need governments - we need paid administrators.
Every Govt. has been incompetent & done their best to destroy our industries.
They should all be in jail for life with hard labor & no parole.

It's disgusting & I'm angry about it.

No it's not. The patent system was designed to encourage innovation and improvement upon existing inventions. It was not designed to stifle innovation which is exactly what Chevron oil has done along with many pharmaceutical companies by making minor changes in order to hold onto the patent to stop it from being made available to the public domain. That's why patents only last 25 years and not indefinitely. Denying a license to manufacture an invention has nothing to do with protecting intellectual property.

You are talking rubbish as usual.

Payroll tax in Victoria is 4.9%.

http://www.sro.vic.gov.au/sro/sronav.nsf/childdocs/-34FAD0EFBAFF8BE0CA2575A100442101-5DB4C6346AF77ABBCA2575D10080B1F7?open

If you earn 60,000 a year in Victoria your employer must pay $2,940 to the Government -
money your employer can't give to you.
It's a tax on jobs.
It takes bread from your table.

How can this encourage employment?
It's pure theft.
You already pay income tax & GST yet this is not able to be claimed back as a loss by the employee.

Yes Nail,
The Govt. is short of money due to excessive spending so they create new taxes.
This causes businesses to go bankrupt & reduces their tax intake so what do they do?

answer -

make up even more new taxes which drive more businesses under.

It's a runaway positive feedback loop.

It's out of control & threatens everyone's job.

JuLiar should just have the election now & do us all a favor.

dudd reckons we should be a country that makes things so lets see him put his money where his mouth is and take the first step of getting rid of this draconian tax law.

Or does dudd think that bringing more business migration from china, running two dollar shops and cafes thus adding to the black economy is the ultimate solution to making things here ?

Why waste time debating destruction of Aussie companies

We KNOW what happened

We KNOW what has robbed Aussies of work and Aussie manufacturers of viability

The Lima Declaration

1975 onwards


Initial gift of Aussie jobs and manufacturing to asia was 25%

That was the start

Now, it's closer to 85%


Anyone who even thinks of starting up business in Oz is shafted by the same bastards who're continuing to pursue the LIma Declaration agenda

Same on the Gold Coast.  Take a look at what's thrown at anyone who attempts to start up there

No need for debate


Long past time for action


And the way to get that moving is to dump both the fake 'big' parties at the next election

and keep doing it

Otherwise, you're dead and so are your kids, grandkids

(unless you inherit a chalet in Switzerland or France.  One that's in good condition)
