Turnbull Supports Corporate mates NOT the People

While opposition parliamentarians fail to connect the dots on unrepresentative elitist Turnbull and appropriate tactics, unelected (let’s hope he never is) elitist Oz PM Malcolm ‘G Sachs’ Turnbull, passes NON-transparency legislation for his corporate and big business mates, did we expect an undisguised, arrogant and conceited elitist not to support the elite minority of which he clearly is a member? Businesses that earn over one hundred $million per annum now are not required to disclose how much tax they pay, indeed, a very convenient and ‘helpful’ law that ONLY assists tax-avoiding companies some of which pay no tax by manipulating the system while average working Aussies that are not able to exploit these tax avoiding avenues shoulder the greater tax burden, notwithstanding their wages have remained stagnant for years while living costs and prices have soared.
Has Turnbull assisted the PEOPLE, no, he has sold out average Australian workers and battlers while UNNECESSARILY favouring his corporate mates, take note Australia and ENSURE this arrogant elitist prick never becomes our elected PM, as he would then go open slather to support the MINORITY Big End of town.
The overwhelming majority of Australians are still waiting for relief from Abbott’s callous policy attacks on average working Aussies, students and the vulnerable in the community. Well, if Turnbull succeeds in DECEIVING Australia and taking the next election expect far more unfair policies and actions as he is now acutely aware he cannot push too hard for his elite mates.
There is absolutely no VALID justification to shield large business/corporations in this way, if large commercial entities pay no or offensively minimal tax the ENTIRE NATION SHOULD BE AWARE OF THE FACT so the people are able to make informed personal decisions whether or not to support these companies – but of course that is precisely the reason the no-transparency bill was passed, much to Labor’s and the Greens’ incompetent disgrace.
Here’s the gist of it from the SMH:
“About 800 companies will benefit from the exemption, including James Packer's Consolidated Press Holdings, Gina Rinehart's Hancock Prospecting, Lindsay Fox's Linfox and the scandal-plagued 7-Eleven convenience store empire of Russ Withers.Need I add to this appalling state of affairs?
Former Australian of the Year Dick Smith said Mr Turnbull would be "ratting on ordinary Australians who pay their tax" if the government passed the exemption.
An Australian Tax Office official recently disclosed at a Senate hearing that one in five privately owned companies with revenues in excess of $100 million paid no tax last year and Mr Smith said the only reason that wealthy business owners were pushing for the exemption was to avoid paying tax.”
