As has been proven the MRRT was a disaster before it was even introduced and Abbott was correct in endeavoring getting it stopped, it was like a lot of government legislation flawed from the start, I sometimes wonder who writes the junk the government puts out. One of Tony's new moves is to cost check all new legislation before it goes to the house.
Having said that of course we should take more from the mining companies most of which are overseas owned or controlled
Australia is stupid to let all this wealth flow out of the country
BUT if it takes more it has to give more in getting rid of the stupid costly restrictions of doing business in this country and the disgrace of the time wasting procedures which the bureaucrats put in place as well as the indigenous claims
Talk to any businessman who tries to do business with our government compared with almost any overseas country and they will tell that it sometimes takes years just to get to a meeting
