Good points Scarpa. I note this issue is reverberating around the world at the moment. Its the wake up call that was needed. The public will want action. Instead of the powerbrokers/govts always focussing on trying to get more out of the little people, the masses, they will now be pressured into fixing the rot at the top of the pile. The billions, maybe trillions these slippery characters squirrel away through a network of sophisticated tax dodging havens.
Yes pollies cut the crap and go after the top end. Don’t tell us tighten our belts and work harder when those that donate to your political parties are permitted to avoid their tax obligations through govt sanctioned loopholes. Have some guts and tell the corporations and the multi-billionairres that their practices are unacceptable and that profit at the expense of most people is not ethical, not the way to go.
Thats my rant on the subject but at least I know that currently I am not alone in my thinking as the issue is currently massive right round the world. Even the White House is having to acknowledge the world scandal. The PM of Iceland has already fallen on his sword and there probably will be more to come, particularly if they refuse to act on the leaked findings of these Panama papers.
