Ooop! know what u mean.. forgot the "Pass On" business trick EOD zero sum game to WL/ML/owners.. Stupid thought
It would be disaster ..... for the punters !
So much talk about tax cheat and dole cheat, I do have a heart warming story to share:
This morning on my way to the airport, this big Kiwi taxi driver was really a breathe of fresh air:
He is fit for a 60 yo, very friendly , funny and a great embassador for the city of Cairns.
He thought I was an overseas tourists and he started the conversation by thanking me of visiting Cairns:
Good morning sir, so good to have you here in Cairns, thank you for visiting us.
Wow, I thought that's nice, fancy that coming from a taxi driver.
Then we talk some rugby and the All Black, Joe is his name and he came to Australia 40 yr ago with his wife in search of better life, both him and his wife works al their life, never been on welfare and with or with the new rule, happy to work until he is 70!
As we reached the airport , he asks me to come back to Cairns sometimes and bring my family and stay longer to enjoy the reef and everything else , what a nice bloke, he can work for me anytime !
Tipped him a big $7.50! And I usually don't tip taxi driver......lol
Now, if we have more working class people like Joe, wouldn't that be nice ??
And he is not even an Aussie
Just a thought
Cheers

There are lots of good citizens with this sort of attitude, nothing's new, but it's got nothing to do with Joe Hockey's budget !

I am really surprised how educated we are in this forum. We are not just about pussies and punting but now politics! I am always amaze by this forum.
There are exceptions though ...
Revenue?
How about fining all the scum that throw cigarette butts on the ground!
You are on the ball!
I've reserved a spot in the table for this incarnation ...
And checkout what happens to the members who start the interesting threads - they get banned.
I'm pretty sure a 5 year old would be able to work out what he did wrong if he was in your shoes ...
That reminds me one of your MLs told me a story about you ...
A kiwi in Australia whose never been on welfare? n'ah, I'm gonna call bullshit on that one.
And anyway what the fuck does a chirpy taxi driver have to do with the federal budget??
That guy who said he was suprised at the quality of conversation in this forum must have rocks in his head.
Everyone is talking in vague generalities. No one is discussing the specifics of the budget cuts in an informed manner.
Plebs. Plebs everywhere
I share my little experiences with Joe with you guys not because it has too much direct relationship to the budget but I was just really impressed with his attitude and out look in life, so proud and positive !
As a Kiwi, he is entitle to welfare in Australia, but he never stops working. So he would have paid his fair share of taxes! And for that guy who said Kiwi not getting welfare in Australia is bull shit, you're the one have rocks in your head! I have known a lot of hard working New Zealand friends who live a honest life and make good contribution to the community. You are either racist or living on welfare yourself !
Now back to Joe, At 60, he could have have start thinking about retirement but seems really enjoying his job and happy to go on for as long as his can !
We need more people like Joe than those lazy dole cheaters who live in Byron Bay eating out from our tax !
Seriously ppl!! I haven't read ALL the input but who gives a fuck!! The government always fucks over the ppl no matter which side of politics they are on!!
Will it effect me? Probably minimally !!
But I still got my few grand a year to spend on WLs to have some fuN so why stress about it!!

I made this point before to that imbecile chairman plough - you might be suprised if you knew where tax dollars ended up.
Do you have children? Do they attend a public school? Do they attend university? Does you family visit the GP or public hospitals? Just who do you think is paying for these things son? A single person on centrelink benefits is probably less of a welfare sponge than the average Australian family.
Do you know who does the real heavy lifting when it comes to filling the public coffers? Its the middle aged, middle class professional singles and couples w/o children.
Assume the tips will not be claimed as "Business expense" ( trade show 2014 etc). Good on you.. Hope all public servant and business employee will follow suit not to push up government/ company expense - one way to avoid tax hike - government save expense, company earn extra and contribute to 30% company tax when properly report profits (i.e no Transfer Price fixing etc.
A truly magnificent Budget by a courageous Treasurer & Prime Minister.
Hopefully the cuts to the ABC will see the end of Virginia Trioli, Sarah Ferguson & Leigh Sales.
Let the "ladies" journey to the private sector to make their money, rather than just living off tax-payers.
No more free benefit lunches, no more meaningless public service jobs, no more ABC cultivating problems
for the nation (tantamount to treachery).
Yes, I am in that middle aged group and a middle class professional . So is Joe the Kiwi taxi driver although he may be a few years more senior than me .
What you said about education and medical services are fine , that's what government is supposed to do, they provide these services to its people and in turns the people works, earn a living and pay tax.
To compare a single centrelink dole receipient to a middle class working family who pay taxes along the way is a bad and twisted example mate !
If a family pays say $25,000K in tax a year, it's totally normal if they receive government provided services and facilities like school and hospital to some equivalent amount of may be $10-$15k
This is not the same for a youth unemployed who may be receiving $450 a fortnight but do no work and pay no taxes while still utilise everything be can that are provided by the government .
I think you have some seriously biased opinions in social justice or is that injustice !
Its easy for you to point the finger at others but the fact is your family is probably a bigger drain on the public purse than any of these 'young dole bludgers' Alan Jones / Ray Hadlee tells you about
Did you know it costs $16,000 a year to put a child through just one year of a public secondary school in NSW (https://www.det.nsw.edu.au/media/dow...ation-cost.pdf) And who do you think picks up the bill to put your kids through school sonny boy? Everybody fucking else - thats fucking who!!!
Stop criticising others for leeching off society. You're sucking on the public teet just as much as anyone kiddo
cowards punch imo
another opportunity for structural reform of the tax system missed. (eg cgt & concessional super contributions, diesel fuel rebate), how many white papers does it need?
new & increased taxes are regressive, (effect poor more than rich) as are most of the spending cuts.
heavy lifting maybe, but not by corporate australia or wealthy.
budget emergency, biggest lie of all. Labor left $55bn deficit,(PEFO) we escaped the GFC (only OECD country to do so) and a much need library or hall in every school. (PEFO - this is treasurys figure not a liberal or labor number), yet hockey's myefo states it as $123b. An increase he blames primarily on $37billion lower tax receipts. Not to mention he gifted the reserve Bank $8b they did not request.
Who do you trust a politician (myefo) or secretary (PEFO) of treasury (public servant)?
defence spending up 6.1% to (2.3b) to 29.3b, rising in real terms 1.7 to 1.8% gdp, rising to 2% by 2018. aside f35 = dud
commission of audit = neocon ideological blueprint
double dissolution, BIO
Mate if the labor party did such a great job running the country why did they lose the last election? Why does Australia have so much debt? It's all very good giving everyone a tv and deadly pink bats but someone needs to pay for it. Why not give a millionaire banker $50000 in tax payers money to have a baby? How much tax do you think that person has paid throughout her career only for the labor party to just piss it down the drain. The only thing the labor party are good at are thinking up stupid policy on the run with not idea of how to pay for it and of course stabbing each other in the back. Now you have a complete turncoat union puppet as your leader. Hilarious. If the majority of Australians got off their arse, used the generous hecs scheme to better themselves and took a job that may not appeal to them from time to time they may not need a hand out. Too much pride to do a shit job and to much sense of entitlement. Imagine how much debt this country would have if the Howard government didn't leave Rudd a massive surplus?
