I don't have a problem with the concept of a resource tax for high profits but it should have kicked in at say 15% instead of the bond rate and the money should be put into a sovereign wealth fund for the future. The implementation was totally botched, an absolute disaster and it makes it that much more difficult to implement sensible tax reform in the future.
Wayne Swan, Ken Henry...you're both dolts.
