–      That’s the proposal of the Henry Tax Review.

How’d you like real tax reform – the abolition of most of our taxes?

How’d you like far cheaper prices as a result of the removal of more than one hundred taxes plus all their cascading deadweight costs?

–      That’s the effect of the Henry Tax Review proposals.

How’d you like to have the 0.1% who’ve been able to avoid paying their fair share to the public coffers paying more?

–      That’s the effect of the Henry Tax Review proposals.

How’d you like to assist productivity?

–      That’s the effect of the Henry Tax Review proposals.

–      We cop it in the neck because politicians are too timid to challenge the seat of power and privilege.  …. So we’re no longer their constituents: we’ve become their stooges.  Call them to account!
