Bleed or make them pay their fair share? Yawn, weak journalism. Also, how's the laws on discretionary trusts going that cost our economy billions? Oh, you've not looked at that? Big story on pies more important?

Fair share? Top 1% of wealthy pay 17% of tax. Top 10% pay 50% of tax. Top 20% pay nearly 70% of tax. How’s that not fair? I’m not in the top 20% by the way.

Steve, I'm not sure where your stats are from, care to share your source? The ATO would not normally share such details. I know discretionary trusts are used by accountants and lawyers to minimise tax but the loophole could easily be closed. Also, close off transfer pricing.

http://theconversation.com/factcheck-is-50-of-all-income-tax-in-australia-paid-by-10-of-the-working-population-45229 … Do u really think MPs & bureaucrats spend tax that efficiently & wisely they deserve more? How about cutting waste?

There's a few issues with the facts you stated; 1. you said top 1% paid 17% of the tax, that's not in this article. 2. This is only income tax. 3. Median taxable income is $36k but includes people who don't work. Accts and lawyers have taxable income of $5k, gross > $500k

So are you trying to make the argument that high earners pay less tax in other areas like rates. GST, rego, luxury car, stamp duty, capital gains etc. Good luck with that.

Communist manifesto in disguise: save Koalas, collectivise, eliminate pay gap by eliminating jobs and income, divide and conquer with identity politics, stop 'competitive' children's sports, and eliminate 'discriminatory' merit-based appointments.

That is why the Greens are considered "nuts" and way out of step with the average Australian.. Actually they have some good conservation/environmental polices but once you get away from that they are out of this world and don't deserve any serious consideration.
