    Bernard Keane Retweeted Business Council of Australia

    Canada has cut company tax from 34% to 26.5% since 2007. Wages growth fell from 3% to below 1% in that period. You're lying. AGAIN.https://twitter.com/BCAcomau/status/928067164598185984 …

        Absolute rubbish! We’ve seen how trickle down economics works. It doesn’t. That has been demonstrated repeatedly in Western countries the World over. Money saved becomes increased profit and is funnelled to exec pay and to shareholders.

        If the tax rate is 30% and LNP lets everyone offshore their profit, is the tax rate 0%? #Schroedinger

        cuts in company tax only really benefit OS investors. With Franking Credits no net gain for Australians at all

        Is company tax rate the only factor affecting wages growth? Doubt it.
