Murdoch's New Corp has just won 885 million back from the Tax Office when the Federal Court gave a green light to its tax scam. New Corp achieved this by bouncing millions and millions of dollars around the world to tax havens and using variances in the going exchange rate.
It's an out and out scam but the Federal Court said it's O.K. So once again the big fish pay f.... all in tax, Google, Apple and the other big guns do the same thing. It s left to Joe Battler to pay the bills, people like Murdoch fly over it. Incidentally he clawed back 550 million in taxes in 2010 using the same ruse. Make you feel good about paying your taxes? |

Surely Joe Hockey will have these bastards in his sights in his drive to balance the budget & return to surplus? ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Yeah & pigs might fly. Good to see it's not only Pollies making mistakes .... but our Federal Judiciary as well. Wonder who picked up the brown paper bags? ;) |

The old dick gets away with tapping phones and now he gets away without paying his fair share of tax. Make sure you don't complain about it though because it's all so insignificant and the age of entitlement only applies to left voting joe battlers :( |

This pisses me right off, particularly from that ass hole Murdoch.
When are we going to get legislation to prohibit these large multinationals from using tax havens and the like to stop paying their fair share of tax in the country where the dollars are earned. I even think the government should legislate a minimum percentage of tax must be paid on earnings over a certain amount. None of this paying the tax in the lowest taxed country they operate in or whatever it is. McDonalds Paypal Starbucks - got ass kicked in UK they are all at it! |
