Blah Blah Blah 25% Tax On Gas Exports Please

As the nation prepares for some weird war time address from a Prime Minister who says we aren't at war, a polite request has been made to the big fella.

That request is to cut the shit, and get his act together.

Fuel excise, smuell excise, blah blah blah blah, just give us the fucking windfall tax.

Please.

This comes after widely unpublicised estimates get shared around revealing the nation could have had over 60 billion dollars in tax, if it had decided to actually tax the tax dodging multinational resources companies when it was voted into office.

That would leave Australia with an extra 17-20 billion dollars a year to pay for all sorts of frivolous things like schools, hospitals and maybe even a National Fuel reserve so we wouldn't have to pay to store it overseas in America.

However, while it may have been a bit of a tricky political ask immediately after coming to power following nearly a decade in the wilderness - now with a 94 seat majority and public sentiment rapidly shifting towards compensation for out natural resources which we rip out of the ground and seabed at an astonishing rate, plenty are beginning to demand a bit of action.

Of course business groups and those in the media with 'sensible economic brains' who look at the bigger picture aren't so keen on taxing these giant companies who spend lots of money on advertising instead of tax.

But for the majority of the nation, it's less talky, more windfall taxy please.

More to come.
