123, our taxes were designed to pay for education. But now that Gillard has spent the education money like a drunken sailor on other stuff of her choosing, you now want the miners to pay for her latest hare-brained announcement instead?
You have to be joking.
Miners are already hit with carbon tax, mining tax and a reduction in prices. Tinkler may be going bankrupt. Other miners are pulling back on work - there are new threads here today on these issues.
Rudd, Gillard and Swan should have managed taxpayers funds wisely instead of going on compulsive obsessive type spendathons with taxpayers money over the last five years.
