The labor party is suppose to help working class families right! But it seems to me that everytime labor are in government they do more harm than good for the average australian worker. Now they are going to place a 0.05% tax on banks for every deposit upto $250,000. Remember keating's land tax started of at $100 per annum now its in the thousands. The banks have already come out and said they will pass this cost on to the depositors. Wouldn't taxing bank profits have been a better way instead of the people's deposits. This labor party really has to go.
Rudd and Gillard have been an absolute disaster for Australia and working Australians. I reckon we won't see an election until the last possible date because they know that they will be given the boot big time.
And the Greens want to introduce death taxes too. These bastards will do a deal with the Greens again if means they can stay in power but next time the Greens will hold them to ransom and we will get all their wacko extremist polices made law and shoved down our throats!
What else can a parasite do, other than suck blood? Other than transmit infectious diseases, that is.
The Greens philosophy and mantra: open Australia’s doors to hundreds of thousands of refugees, but never once considering Australia already has 300,000 homeless people, and a further one million waiting on public housing lists - and nowhere to house them. We, the tax payers are paying for those Greens morons salaries, who are suggesting ideas that 10 year olds wouldn’t even suggest. How glaring obvious does it have to become before people finally wake up and realise these bastards don’t know how to do anything besides tax. They don’t invest. They don’t manage. They don’t build. They don’t manufacture. What the hell are they good for, and what the hell are they getting these massive salaries to do? Lets get rid of these incompetent mongrels, and hire private companies to manage the country - they cannot do any worse.
They've been the best thing for australia! The "World Wide" recession has been bad for working Australians! The big punters are punting on a labor win apparently! Have you got $250,000.00 to deposit DD? Think world econonomy FFS! Who is Ajax?
The world wide recession is starting to hit home, our unemployement rate is way over what is shown nationaly, thats because people wouldn't get the doll if they applied and so use up thier own funds while looking for work, so they dont register. Dude its up to $250,000, have you got $5000 saved then you will be hit. I dont get it why didn't they say bank deposits over $1 million. Or a 0.05% tax rate on bank profits??? Why are they hitting the little guys......it could have also been anything OVER $250,000. So wake up and smell the CO2 dude. Ajax is my cousin.
The insurance levy is to protect depositors in the case of a banks collapse. It was recommended by the Reserve Bank of Australia, the International Monetary Fund and the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority. Have we really already forgotten about the GFC? This is to stop your deposits from going "poof" and disappearing into thin air if the bank collapses, as happened to so many poor bastards overseas.
No Ziggy, the insurance levy is to boost the ALP`s figures. The IMF, and other parasites would obviously recommend this levy, it`s in their favor to be insured by other people`s money, and it will be other people`s money that pays for this. Professional opinion is almost unanimous in the opinion that this levy is not necessary.
Like all leftist parties its new ways to take from the people to fund their ever expanding waste. Lets get this election on already, we're sick of listening to labor and its fail.
"Professional Opinion", of whom? Bankers? No (*)(*)(*)(*). The IMF gains nothing from the levy, nor does the Reserve Bank. Smaller banks and lenders are the main beneficiaries. The government can't continue to provide a guarantee on deposits without a fund to support it.
