So ... how long will it be before Western Governments start the cogs turning on introducing a Covid Management Levy?
Like basically an extra addition to medicare levy?
Or a generalised Covid recovery tax. Which would be some % increase on either income tax or consumption tax?
I assume when economic life returns to being reliable ... it'll be on!

Is it possible to vote for labor anymore? It’s so full of nasty ladies and effeminate cucks that no true blue collar worker would go there would they?
I reckon if we asked the big companies to actually pay some tax we would be back to normal pretty quickly.

It's Victoria that keeps the ALP alive. The Liberal party here is an absolute shambles, so the ALP gets a free pass no matter what they do.

I just hope all the Mexicans bailing out of Victoria and heading North for greener pastures leave their shit politics behind! Up our way properties are selling hand over fist it's unbelievable! The great southern exodus has begun!

The great southern exodus has begun! Same here. we only bought this place a little over 12 months ago and the realo who sold us the place is asking if we want to sell! To be honest the National stronghold in my area has left us the laughing stock of the state, Labour probably would be better. Ol kev hogan can only replace old wooden bridges in BF nowhere. We have bugger all services but still pay tax and high rates to prop up gumby numpty local governments like Byron and Lismore shires.

The great southern exodus has begun! My place on the eurobodalla coast has doubled in value (minus the $20k I spent on connecting the power and building the shed) in the 4 years I've owned it, and that looks like going up again with building a new regional hospital 15 minutes away to start next year.

Already started here in a way.....
Trudeau announcing the carbon tax will triple to $170 a ton by 2030, so we can be assured of "doing our share" for the world.. Right CHAMP... If it were a tax on sugar, you could choose to not drink sweet soda, but when it is on gasoline, heating oil, or gas.. You don't have a choice.. Many feel just a boost to the account balance he uses as give away money to other countries..
Also... Just the other day he said something about giving away surplus covid vaccine doses to other countries that may need it.. This already paid for by the taxpayers here.. All before everyone in this country has had the vaccine... What the hell is he thinking ?? - - - - - but agree with the sentiment. if you are leaving, leave your politics too. +++ Yea... Right... Just like here.. When the condo dwellers move to the bush from places like Vancouver.. spit... they expect everything to be like it was there, and vote that way... And are incensed when it isn't a seemingly seamless transition for them...
Don't get me started...

I reckon they won’t introduce a new tax. I reckon they’ll just deficient spend and print more money - devaluing the AUD by diluting it. Everyone’s purchasing power will be a little less just like as if you had a little less money because you had to pay more tax. Same effect except it’s sneakier, most people will just think groceries, beer, smokes, and everything else has gotten more expensive but what can you do, can’t be helped.
