How we plan to beat history

How we plan to beat history

To all those having a whinge about Labor and the PRRT have a watch of this. Cam makes a pretty good point on how taxing gas will make it politically difficult to phase it out when we want to transition to renewables. Labor is focussed on Future Made in Australia

Ben Fordham is a massive prick.

There are people out there who cannot stand the higher temperatures leading them to heat stroke, heat exhaustion, heat cramps and heat rash.

Fordham needs to shut the fuck up when he sits in an office on his ass screaming into a microphone everyday in an air-conditioned room.

In Jordies words "Ben Fordham is a mouthpiece for the Liberal Party."

What do you think we shouldn’t tax gas?

There are many commentators here saying “we shouldn’t tax gas more”. I want your point of view, why shouldn’t we get more tax revenue from gas?

Santos recorded nearly $47bn in sales over a decade without paying corporate tax. Inpex is another company that has been mentioned in this debate. They have paid very little tax.

Yes they have expensive projects, but they also have generated billions more in revenue over the cost of those projects.

Some of these companies have also utilized profit shifting tactics to reduce Aussie tax bills.

One day, those resources will be gone and we’ll have nothing to show for it.

KIIS turns tables on Kyle and Jackie O, sues pair for millions

Looks like ARN is now seeking tons of money from Kyle & Jackie O to make up for lost advertising revenue, primarily caused by activist group Mad Effing Witches (MFW) who made advertisers turn away from the KIIS program, and in turn, made it harder for ARN to generate the required advertising revenue to pay the pair.

This really is now getting very messy indeed.

What are the best and worst Australian subreddits

(This was flagged as political and got auto deleted from r/australia lol).

I’m not in many subreddits. I’ve been lucky so far in that I haven’t stumbled into many wretched hives of scum and villainy. But I’m sure they’re out there.

This sub seems pretty decent - so what good Aussie subreddits do people here recommend?

And which to avoid?
