    Misty. That was the contraversial and misleading table that made it seem that the miners were paying less tax over the years, and to those that didn't look closely, it would appear as such.

    'During the mining boom this has meant that as profits from our nations resources have increased, the communitys share of those earnings has decreased. And about half of the profits have gone overseas.'

    This is clearly misleading as in fact the communities share has increased through the company tax on increased profits.
