@missrobinson You’re pretty comfortable with labelling millions of people in a way that makes them easy for you to dismiss.
You must be one of those incredibly intolerant progressives.
@RobToThheOz@DarrenAdams1967 Also, nurses don’t really pay tax.
All their income is derived from the taxes others pay.
If nurses were net contributors they’d be able to pay their own wages from the taxes they contribute plus cover their per capita share of everything else like defence and NDIS etc.
So no.
@RobToThheOz@DarrenAdams1967 All investments are not equal.
Investing in financial instruments for speculative gains is very different to building a factory or buying a workshop and running a business that employs people.
Property should not be so advantaged that it diverts business investment away.
@RobToThheOz@urbnjrgntrbn Mostly if you’re investing through a company.
The extent to which particular things are deductible outside of normal business practices is another illustration of the futility of some of the system.
They make a tax but it has detrimental impacts so they mitigate them slightly.
@RobToThheOz@Velvet_Forge Instead of being spoon fed an impression from another source, do some basic research for yourself.
We had our 28 millionth resident last week and they pretended it was a baby, not a migrant.
Regardless, 64% participation rate.
Median income is under $60k.
Who’s really paying?
@sue_thurley@JaneCaro Yeah, you’re not nice at all.
In fact, if you claim to be nice but behave abusively towards citizens on the internet who have politely disagreed with you, then you are a liar.
Keep hating, nasty old woman.
@JaneCaro It’s strange how little we hear about the women being killed by men when there is a left wing govt even though the stats are no different.
Almost like the media chooses which stories to run based on a broadly lefty bias.
And the activists pipe down when they’re paid off…
@urbnjrgntrbn@RobToThheOz Inflation is effectively a tax on capital.
Stamp duty is a tax on the capital if it’s a property investment.
Any professional services incurred to manage the investments/accounting are all subject to GST which re-taxes the capital because they’re payable regardless of outcome.
@Velvet_Forge@RobToThheOz The Federal Government alone is spending about $800,000,000,000 this coming year.
That’s over $42,000 for every person with a job, >25% of whom are employed by govt at some level and are therefore not net contributors.
It’s a bleak picture for the couple of million who are.
@RobToThheOz But doesn’t the discount only apply to the gain?
So the devaluation of the capital continues unabated and the value of $1 halves every 20-odd years.
So the govt will be taking a sizeable portion of the real gains.
Meanwhile different assets will benefit differently from policy
@sue_thurley@JaneCaro A nicer person wouldn’t say that.
You must be deluded as to your true nature.
But I’m sure your owners will affirm you.
It’s crazy how people who openly admit to their mental illness still presume to tell others what to think.
Why value the opinion of 2 dogs’ slave? Crazy.
@LeeBeeWassup@Prowerock1@JaneCaro Are you kidding?
Feminists have frequent and extensive opinions about that topic.
Some of you have proposed that all men be sterilised via vasectomies and the procedure only be reversed in limited cases where the man is deemed worthy of being allowed to reproduce.
Try again.
@JaneCaro This is so insane.
I so badly wish we could have an un-hypocritical system where those who want others to pay more are themselves compelled to pay more.
Otherwise it’s just theft by the majority from a minority.
By her logic if we taxed 100% the govt would do everything for us
@LeeBeeWassup@Prowerock1@JaneCaro That attitude makes you a female supremacist.
Name a single area where women have no right to an opinion simply because of their gender.
@pinkheretic@Prowerock1@JaneCaro No one?
You think it would take more than a couple of minutes to find one of the many videos online where people celebrate and hold parties over their abortions?
Plenty of women celebrate and boast of their abortions. They’re your allies. Stop pretending it’s a noble sacrifice.
@Christie_Whelan It’s very unwise to claim that you will “always” stand with someone unless they’re your child or your spouse.
What happens if Grace kills someone? Or steals from the govt and gets caught?
It’s a stupid gesture to pre-approve every action someone else might make in the 50 years.
