There is nothing fair about taxation at any point but we must all pay something. I don't think this new debt tax is very fair though. I think the wealthier pay their fare share but high cost of living pressures make it tough on those who aren't that able to find decent jobs or aren't that talented. But any welfare should be stopped at anyone earning more than $80k. Australians has been living the debt binge for the last 17 years.
I suppose with the self employed you are at least paying super to yourself (haha).
I also think that if business is putting in 9 or 12% then the employee should be forced to place the same into his/her super fund.
