Is Amazon a financial terrorist against Australia?

Bezos is another american billionaire who takes this country for granted 'profit without a cost'. Its high time facebook, amazon, microsoft, coca cola, google et al finally started to pay tax. germany is richest economy on globe for one reason -everything which comes into that nation has 30%tax [but germany makes everything too so the german consumer still wins].

Only for the hapless mentality of australian governments who have over the decades [under both the labor/liberal monopoly's] done everything to abide foreign big business and australia's obscenely local oligarch's the right to sell the average aussie tax-payer into usery.
Seriously where else on the globe can a foreigner buy real-estate or anything for that matter and hold onto it for 100 years.
Our two-party monopolies are this nations greatest enemy.

Liberal parties only solution is to make it even more expensive for the average aussie to buy goods & services even mildly cheaper via amazon instead of having to suffer the injustice of being rippped-off by the harvey norman's of this country's appalling business elites who only ever became elite in first place by ripping off their fellow australians and sending the money back into supporting the fascist state of israel imo.

IF these idiot's who run and thrive and maintain at all cost this nation's 2-party monopoly like 'sco-mo' who has brought on this anti-amazon new tax/burdon onto the 'aussie consumer' [-not necessarily amazon all u gotta do is get a vpn] had any real sense largely thru being beholden to a freetrade trickle down theory it might be added, they would instead of divest australian infrastructure/business of any further government control or ownership [by selling utilities etc to foreign owners who then run them down only to then become expensive abject failures that they need to either provide support to these failing private enterprises or re-buy then at great cost to tax-payer when they should never have sold them off in first place]

a freetrade trickle-down theorem it must be said, and which has made australia into a large vacuous hole-in-ground.
-Or merely into a trader of rocks just because the gina rheinharts of the world [with the aid of the libs] refuse to value-add because they just do not wanna share profit with their fellow australians. PureGreed.

So bASICALLY IF 'SLO-MO' HAD ANY real IDEA he would immediately do what australian governments used to do before the rise of neo-con slave...err my mistake neo-con style FREEtrade took hold of our nation.

-That is provide protection for the lowly tax-payer by allowing government owned business & infrastructure be reborn, so they could be used to dusrupt the greed & over-pricing of the lowly australian consumer.

Seriously everthang in this country is owned or is sold off to foreign ownership like no other. The best of our agricultural produce goes overseas whereas the aussie consumer must buy uncertified foodstuffs back from place like vietnam or laos or chile, china, angola or wherever at again very expensive prices.

Its crazy and been goin on too long! Freetrade can work but not if it only benefits the rich. That's where governments must take a stand and become the australian amazon or the australian utility provider just so that harvey norman or the myers or the coles or woolies dont go back to 'winning' at the aust consumers expense like has happened over the last forty or so years now.
