Where is the vision?
Jan 1^st, 2016 at 9:33pm

It seems to me that (Australia) we are stuffed at the moment. Despite all the political hype........there is not one politician with a clear idea how to get ahead. We are in a boring rut and it really boils down to a choice between stuff all and stuff all and we cannot even afford that.

Where are the ideas? Where is the vision? Where is a Leader?

Probably hanging his head in shame after playing his part in abolishing CT that costs families about 150 bucks a year only to see the Libs wanting to bring a GST in to replace the revenue stream they killed, because we have a spending problem ..... not a revenue problem, that's why we need a GST rise Roll Eyes

You are income taxed on what you earn - your overall tax burden varies based on your ability to spend..... if you wish to abolish income tax altogether and impose instead a GST on all your money, no matter how or where spent.. you might have an argument.

The reason this is not done is because it is impossible to keep track of offshore spending... ergo you are taxed at the base - on income.... and the opportunity to spend more without incurring tax is balanced by a higher tax level for higher incomes.
