Kerry Packer's Political Philosophy

An http://economics.org.au/ Production — Highlights of Kerry Packer's 1991 House of Reps Select Committee on Print Media Appearance. It includes perhaps the most famous Australian anti-government quote, where Packer says that anyone who pays more tax than they can get away with needs their head examined. For more radical and principled politics from other great Australians, like John Singleton, Lang Hancock and Neville Kennard, like http://facebook.com/economics.org.au and subscribe to http://economics.org.au.

"Don't you know any difference?" What a joke, these pollies are on a power trip, and neither of them have a formal understanding of business. Kerry Packer stated the obvious then and nothing has changed since, just more laws.

Don't be fooled by the talk of 'jobs jobs jobs'... Packer like all barons gives exactly zero shiny fucks about the common man and his jobs. It's perfectly right that institutions that wield massive power (the power to change governments) is subject to a degree of regulation.
