    123 - I'm astonished that anyone interested in share trading - which presumably includes forum members on HC - would welcome or encourage this greedy tax.

    Might I suggest you're in the wrong business or are following the wrong interest.

    Our mining industry is not owned by the big faceless foreign billionaires our clown of a Caretaker Treasurer would have us believe. That is simply a ruse for a typical Labor grab at a chest of cash it has seen. Shareholders are mums and dads, super funds, and ordinary Aussies who have risked their own capital to buy a share in Australia's future. Socialists, of course, think it is their God given right to put out their hands for a share. If a future Labor government wants to share in our mining boom, let them buy shares like everyone else, rather than expropriate ie steal a proportion of the wealth from Aussie shareholders. It beggars belief that any share holder voted Labor.
