The Finance/ Business/ Money Thread

What would eventually bring that new Government down was its attempt to introduce a Resource Super Profits Tax on our mining industry, in an attempt to share some of the wealth from the mining boom among the Australian people.

The mining industry spent $28million in attack ads against the Government until Labor were forced to remove Kevin Rudd and replace the tax with a significantly watered down version that the mining industry were happy with.

Those ads were fucking pathetic. The same tactics were used when that senator from South Australia wanted to introduce a one dollar limit on pokies. Alot of bullshit about communities being destroyed and sports teams going to the wall due to lack of corporate/club sponsorship.
