Carbon Tax Corruption Scandal; Part 1 - series Introduction by the Galileo Movement

Carbon Tax Corruption Scandal; Part 1 - series Introduction by the Galileo Movement. Join volunteer Malcolm Roberts and the Galileo Movement for this first in a series of videos that explain the deliberate manipulation and misrepresentation of science that is the basis of the government's carbon tax.

In this video: understand the scope of this series and how people really care; the difference between pollution and global warming; The Galileo Movement's founding and purpose; the need to base our care on informed facts; the humanitarian danger of taking action without being accurately informed.

@1000frolly "By your logic, ..."

Not by my logic. You can't conclude that "interest rates are high now because of Howard" because I noted that interest rates are lower now, than under Howard. The fact that they are lower now, than they were, has nothing to do with my logic.

There was a time when people from the right had heard of supply and demand; a time when they weren't allergic to the term "economy," and a time when Adam Smith was a household name. Alas today they're lost at sea.

[RasPesher]

@1000frolly The value of the Ozzy dollar is like any other item in that supply and demand set its value. With the stimulus package the Government had not been cutting supply. The RBA has been setting the interest rate at a level to prevent excessive inflation. It is not set at a level to overly reduce supply. You say that "Mining has kept the country strong" and by strong, that there is a demand for mining products. Demand forcing up the exchange rate for the dollar itself.

[RasPesher]

@1000frolly Economics is not one of your strong points. Interest rates under Howard were higher than they are now. Also the interest rates had been strongly rising in the last year of the Howard Government. Furthermore it became apparent that the reserve bank were acting politically by not raising the interest rate as they normally would, just prior to the election. After the election and prior to Rudd's economic policies having any real effect, the RBA raised the rate even further.

@RasPesher

"The mining industry has almost doubled the price of the Australian dollar"

Rubbish.

The main reason for the rise in the dollar has been the policies of our incompetent labor government since 2007.

Since then we have had massive government waste, resulting in high interest rates and a high dollar.

Mining has kept the country strong in spite of the government, not because of it.

Mining and high-energy use manufacturing will be doomed if the carbon tax and mining tax start

@RasPesher

If that is true, I would be against it 100%.

[RasPesher]

@1000frolly You seem to think that everyone is nieve when you say, "There are no foreign workers; all are Aussies"

Gina Rinehart on behalf of India's GVK group is advocating the setting up of a "Northern Special economic zone from Bowen to Port Hedland." Clive Palmer, the other big player in the Galilee Basin with ChinaFirst, is also behind the push.

The purpose of the proposed "free trade zones" is to allow the mines to employ 100% foreign labour flown in direct from overseas.

[1000frolly]

@RasPesher

You also think that Rudd saved us from the GFC; he does, too.

What saved us and what is keeping this country's head above water now is MINING.

Gillard and Brown are trying to kill off both mining and manufacturing in this country, if they succeed, what will be left?

I work in one of those chinese-owned mines you obviously know nothing at all about.

There are no foreign workers; all are Aussies.

They pay massive taxes, company, payroll, PAYE, royalties.

Youre a big idiot.

[RasPesher]

@1000frolly What jobs? What Taxes? Benefit to Australia:- a hole in the ground

A no. of Ozzy coal mines have been sold to the communist Chinese & Indian purchasers. The mine "China 1st" isn't called China 1st for nothing

1) Transfer price deals will allow these companies to dodge Aussie Taxes.

2) They want to automate their mining operations.

3) For those remaining jobs they want to bring in Chinese and Indian workers

4) Royalties mainly go to providing infrastructure for the mines

@GM Cars will probably go electric. They will then solve your other problem, what to do when the wind is not blowing. With millions of cars connected to the grid each night power may be purchased back from the cars to the grid. Cars then act as a temporary power station. Selling to the grid when the price is high. When the wind blows again the batteries are recharged, but at a lower price. All the owner needs to do is let the grid know when he is going to need his car next.

@GalileoMovement "the Government will ... force cars with petrol engines off the road"

"Peak car use per capita was in 2004 & since has shown a slow decline. It marks an end to car dependence"-ABC Science Show

People are already abandoning cars. The government will not need to do a thing.

Some say that peak oil has already been reached. One thing is for sure, all the large oil fields have already been found; new discoveries tend to be small. Prices are set to go sky high.
