We are one of only three countries that has dividend imputation at all, so we can count our blessings, and if a little bit of that is clawed back in times of deficit then I won't be crying about it.
So this new tax scheme by Shortonbrains is double taxation or theft. It would be similar to him saying that he won't pay the refund back for the excess of offsets you claim on PAYG Withholding or PAYG Instalments.
So you're saying only three countries are doing the right thing?We are one of only three countries that has dividend imputation at all, so we can count our blessings, and if a little bit of that is clawed back in times of deficit then I won't be crying about it.

So if Labor came out and said we will no longer refund PAYG withholding and PAYG Instalments then I guess it will be a good thing because they are coming up with ideas to fix the budget deficit.Not necessarily in times of budget deficit. The Libs haven't been able to pull it back, at least Labor is coming up with ideas.
How about cut wasteful spending. Cut public service wage inflation. Before asking to pay more tax.So who are they going to burn a couple of hundred thousand fogies and the big end of town.
Gives them a bit of cash to negate the Fizzers tax cuts in the coming budget.
That’s the mail I’m getting.
Seriously baby boomers thinking they’re getting the short end.
Sell your mansions.
The problem is our tax is just wasted when they get more. Everyone is already stretched. Rego, electricity, food, rent/mortgage and on top of that labor thinks adding more tax is a good idea. Go through all the bloated public service wages and swing the axe.We are one of only three countries that has dividend imputation at all, so we can count our blessings, and if a little bit of that is clawed back in times of deficit then I won't be crying about it.

To come to that conclusion from that quote you come across as someone who should lay of the piss
You come across to me as someone who believes that the government owns 100% of everything that an individual or company earns. In other words, an extreme communist.
You are welcome to pay more tax if you want. How about donating half of your total wagesTax cuts are a vote gimmick. It means somewhere else has to take a hit to fill the gap.
The have been making spending cuts and were blocked by the senate.Thanks for that, best laugh I've had today.
You must be joking if you think that just because a Liberal government gave high wealth individuals and companies tax breaks that they never should have got that it's therefore daylight robbery to claw a bit of that back when we have a budget deficit and debt that was a "disaster" according to the Libs and is now even worse since they got in.
And if you think that the deficit should be corrected by spending cuts then why hasn't that been done under a Liberal government ? And why are they going to make it worse with an unfunded $60 billion corporate tax cut when most economists think that it will barely achieve anything ?
The revenue side has to be looked at if we are going to pay for not only schools and hospitals but expensive submarines and jet fighters and maybe you would like to make some suggestions how that should be done ?

Well then you seem to be jumping around a bit. Pensioners are getting hit and you are rubbing your hands together.Because they were aimed at the people who could least afford them.
