She is the patron of the Small Business Association of Australia. I didn't need to go to any s**** millionaire party to met her (I have also been to her house and that's another story), she was at last years convention. You do support small business don't you - or is that another tax cheating system which needs to be driven off the face of the earth with higher taxes? |

Now there is the biggest rort (apart from stamp duty) perpetrated onto small business. A tax that employers pay if they pay more than $300,000 (IIRC) per year in wages. A tax for employing people so they can pay tax?

What does small business have to do with my thoughts on a billionaire fatty? It doesnt suprise me you are connected to small buisness in someway seeing as how liberal loving you are you fit right in if that surprises you. Lets use your logic for a second and push it a little further how do i judge my thoughts on politicians? by what i read in the media or how many times ive met them in person? what about another country say north korea? how do i judge it by how nice kim jong is at the annual dictator bbq or by the media do i have to have actually met every person and been to every location in the world to hate something or is that only when its somebody you personally like considering your disregard and hatred for most things in this thread id say you haven't met every dole bludging bong smoker they could be a really nice person. Or the abc there a bunch of vipers how would you know you havent met them only what you read in the media? Considering your the king of sweeping generalizations with no proof to back up most of your claims im gonna go ahead and still stick to i dont like her. As for your media jibe about it manipulating my impressionable mind atleast i listen to both sides of the media instead of picking only the conservative dribble i happen to like the abc i dont agree with everything they say but sometimes there spot on just like fairfax. So stop being a big hypocrite about this one issue because the fatty invited you over to her house.

So I gather you've not run or operated a business.
By the way I rose through the ranks so to speak, doing crappy shift work for 7 years. I now run a small business, doing 60-80 hours a week, unfortunately no one gifted me a thing. However I've heard your type a hundred times over, resent and blaming people for trying improve their lives and that of their family. Finally so you can keep your insults to yourself, we lost family and friends fighting Hitler - pull your head in! Last edited by cheap; 12-05-2014 at 12:09 AM. |

As for my good self since you seem so interested i started caring for my disabled dad when i was highschool dropped out to care for him full time living on the carer pension eating dirt then started doing cleaning work part time cleaning toilets 3 hours a day at a call center for a few years to supplement my income then when i was free from the pension started working fulltime in security for 7 years making a difference to peoples lives now i work in warehousing doing 80 hours a fortnight. So enlighten me to what type of person i am again because im unsure what type of people you are referring to?
It cant be gina because she inherited her wealth and didnt work hard to get it. But she sure is working hard to keep it from her family? so kinda the opposite of your good self then? LMAO |

Nope not really, they're mates with my parents and brag to them about it all the time. They're not exactly shy about it. We've know them for 17yrs. So stfu and don't comment on things you have NO idea of!! How can you make such claims that they aren't tax cheats?? I know them personally you don't. Unbelievable. Not everything is a Disney movie unfortunately, some people out there actually do appoint their stay at home housewives as their company director to steal our tax dollars to chaffeur themselves to Dan Murphys in Holden Granges. I'm sorry I wish I could tell you it wasn't like that but it actually is. Some people out there also buy investment properties and tell the ATO it's a purchased "PPOR" but funnily enough exactly 12 months later it becomes tenated to rort tens of thousands in CGT tax from us. And the fbt has been done over and over on this forum already. Face it some people out there are dishonest, greedy and selfish all it requires is 1% of us really with their multi-millions to affect 99% of usand many of us are in the shitter end of that 99%. The perfect system is only an idea some people cheat tax and overall it costs the country 120 billion per year and we do nothing but turn a blind eye. And one of them's my neighbour. They hold the mere view that tax/contribution is theft and therefore believe it's ok not to pay it. Bunch of Packers really. So that doesn't bother you at all? Ok then. We don't live a perfect world where people pay their 120 billion p.a. and are honest with their CGT. I'm sorry to be right about this but I can't control people.

^ Go and get photos of them, especially driving to the shops to get grog, in a public place so you can take photos of them.
Then post them up here for name and shame IMO |

Unfortunately everyone does it and it's not worth causing them and their family the grief really but we've bloody well thought about it!! And we bloody well should really, in reality they would've not taken anymore than $300 000 in dishonesty (that they've told us about.. so yes it could be more) but they're small fish.. ruining them wouldn't do anything but make an example of tax cheats but yes I know!!! So bloody tempting that bloody nature strip brought us close that really did agitate the entire street. Everyone still parks in front of it regardless of their stupid sign, it's not private it's council property as is the road adjacent to it. We probably would've reported them just to stop the nature strip but by time they let on to us about it their dodgy zoning plans were already in place... bastards.
120 000 000 000/ 300 000 and up to 1.200 000 = 50 000 to 400 000 tax cheats nationwide. (Provided they each have endless full tax dollars to claim so yes... of course real numbers are a lot different and this is basically pseudomath). The only way to give a real average of tax dollars stolen per individual would be to source the country's statistics, I said 300 000-1.2 million, a good rough average for the 97% of society but some people will also be cheating $40 a year off the books not declaring their casino win, a few possibly even 40 million, some even 400 million.. so it could be anything like 20 000-800 000 tax cheats possibly more or less idfk. outliers everywhere. So there's an even bigger problem than public servants. Kerry Packers legacy lives on in full force. The only way to make a noticeable difference to the economy is to regulate all of the tax cheats, which is exactly what Rudd tried to do with the FBT, but wasted the opportunity and managed it awfully and the concept went out the window (novated leases and not actually solving the rorts like it was intended to). The concept was great but it was implemented horribly and with no regard to the feasibility for some groups. Now the damage of rudds fbt attack will probably leave the fbt unregulated for another 20yrs sigh.

I reckon the perfect way to fix the economy is to force the rich (I am talking the 50 million+) to spend. That's the problem right there that wealth needs to currently be in the economy not sequestered from it. Force them to build our railroads/transport/infrastructure, it's good for their interests anyway they would love to own the world and conquer it like gods.
If Gina and Palmer were forced to invest then we'd for example have an NBN. And instead of optus, internode and dodo it'd be Reinhart, Palmer, Adani and Murdoch... and with their own little netflix monopoly. And as much as I wouldn't like that at all, it's a solution to the current problem. A better solution is to simply not allow individuals to have that much power/influence and wealth LOL.

Interesting how HSC results could possibly be skewed by the above. And a friend of ours was doing some work at a local girls private school recently. It's the one with the grand piano in the foyer, individual air cond sound proof music rooms, lift, under cover staff car park, a 25M heated indoor pool etc etc. Anyway while there she witnessed a teacher berating the girls in her class for their behaviour. She was telling them....'you're acting like public school girls' to which they replied....'oh please miss don't say that' |

I'm also yet to understand why already absurdly wealthy individuals want even more money. On the surface yes Packer employs a lot of people, however casinos are a very lucrative business and their aim is to fleece you of as much money as possible via gambling. Gambling can be addictive, highly addictive, destroys families and on a personal level I'm not at all comfortable with someone peddling something that causes so much misery to so many. We've all seen and read the many stories of individuals who embezzled money, often millions, from their workplaces, many of them to fund gambling. It'd just be great to instead see each of these Australian billionaires do good for others and our country by genuinely investing their money back into people and improving places in a long term visionary way. Who knows if they did perhaps they'd even be happier people? |

While that question wasn't directed to me in that quote, it was directed to someone that has a similar converse attitude to Mr Cheap, so I thought I would answer it anyway.
I do yes. I really didn't want to go down this whole I have had it harder than you path but so here we are. And by the way I feel rather blessed, lucky, and live on an amazing property and want for very little. From the age of 7 upwards I was up at 5am every morning and cleaning a pub well before 6, I would cycle straight to school from the pub. Apart from school holidays of course where I would invariably be going to work with my bricklayer dad to help him and as I got older do a full brickys labouring job on school holidays for dad, by the way this was always on house sites not corporates and dad was rabidly anti-union and sub-contractor. After school every day I did a paper round in my earlier years, but by 14 I worked at a service station until close after school each day. No wonder I ran away and joined the ADF at 16 where I spent ten years. On exit I started a small business on a wing and a prayer with very little support and scraped by for many years but do pretty well these days and play plenty of tax. Have never been on any form of welfare, got any allowance, first home buyers or anything like that whatsoever. So see, there are people, that actually do run businesses, have not grown up going to private schools or been given any real advantages other than a strong work ethic embedded from an early age and still believe in ensuring that Australia is a fair egalitarian society that takes care of people that are unfortunate. Sure, there are those that rort it, in large schemes that will always happen, but those welfare schemes still need to be there for the genuinely unfortunate that require a leg up and support. I believe that we are still very much the lucky country and can't believe how most people doing well in this country largely are such a pack of whinging tossers that can't see anything outside of their own narrow little world. Just such insular sad little individuals really. If you want real comedy spend some time around 'SOME' mine workers where they all ***** about how hard done by they are, living in fairly good quarters, working two or three weeks on and a week off, or some even now doing two weeks on and two weeks off, but man still they are so hard done by, they even manage to convince themselves of this so much that they actually believe it.... On the warships we averaged 15-18 hours a day, slept in a mess with 48 people stacked three high so tight you nearly had to dislocate your shoulder to roll over, had two showers and two toilets between the 48 of us, worked seven days a week always when at sea. Were away every year for a 2-3 month deployment and 4-5 month deployment.... But gee having to fly up north for a couple of weeks before a couple of weeks off, that is really tough going, they might even have to share a toilet sometimes!!! And the fact that they actually have to pay tax on their six figure incomes!!!! Well that is just going way too far and is completely unfair!!!!! Like I say.... comedy :-)

I blame the redneck radio shockjocks in part for the whinging that goes on these days.
These 'broadcasters' go out of their way to convince people things are bad and that they have every right to be angry because the 'bad times' are due to person or party x on the left side of politics. It's quite a skill reducing complex discussions about important topics down to simplistic hard nosed one liners but they have it down pat and they steer how their audience thinks and reacts. Just look at the Cronulla riots as an example of their power. Funny thing is AJ tried his hand at politics years ago and failed embarrassingly. |

The problem is we make it so hard to bring them to account. Look how long it is taking to find out if Craig Thompson will actually serve time - it is still going on appeal - back to you can video a workcover cheat carrying a pallet of 40kg bags so he can pave his backard while off work, but he still apparently is unfit for work which may involve occasionally carrying 16kg. We have so much protection for the guilty, but little for the honest hard working, both high and low earning. I just wish there was respect for both, and less of the "I am owed" mentality. I would never, ever wish for a genuinely disadvantaged individual not to be protected and given a helping hand by society for as long as it takes. But anyone taking advantage of this deserves to be dealt with harshly and most importantly swiftly.

The I am owed mentality started with the middle class welfare vote buying of Howard and has only got worse since. That said, those that need a leg up must be provided with it. But if you are earning more than 50k a year then you should get no sort of government assistance outside of the normal medicare, education provided etc. that always was there.
