Nhoj,
I'm not sure, but I think before politics Lying Joe was a garbage collector, come to think of it, he still is!

.....It would be interesting to see Hockey's personal tax return. I bet that over the years he's minimised his tax liability in every legal (??) way that's humanly possible.

Yep, worked for me.

I adopted the philosophy that for every dollar I gave to support the bludgers, I would take one for myself.

After all, there have to be some perks for taking the risks.

My favorite was when Kerry Packer was asked if he minimized his taxes, he relied, of cause I do, because after all, you fools will only waste them. Not a truer word spoken.

Rehctub, thanks for finally admitting that you contribute as little as you possibly can to our defence forces, our hospitals, our roads, our health system, our education system, government private business assistance, government funded scientific research etc etc etc etc ... the list is almost endless. No point in giving your tax dollars to rubbish like that eh Rehctub. Tax minimisation is the name of the game.

I see you're one of life's takers, not givers.

Nhoj,

rehctub's attitude sums up the Conservative ethos perfectly.

Self-obsession and greed rule hands down.

Butch, I recall you supporting criminal tax avoidance, and saying it way okay for small business to pocket the GST. Am I wrong, or was not that your stated opinion on here. If so would you support armed hold up of butcher shops by those wanting more meat without paying for it? I, and I'm sure the other fair minded posters on here like Nhoj and Poirot do not support any such activity either, not sure about the other 'usual suspects' can't vouch for them on anything good or bad. What about you?

Butcher,

John is the epitamy of a Labor voter. I would guess that he is in a dead end job paying little tax and enjoying far more benefits and hand outs, while those that actually do productive work, pay far more tax and receive little to nothing in benefits. Yet John, Parrot, and Paul simply look at achievers with envy and greed and wonder what more they can take.

The top 25% of earners pay about 2/3rds of the total income tax and receive about 5% of the benefits. The bottom 25% pay about 1% of income tax and receive about 2/3rds of the benefits.
