Latest Linkedin Post<\/h4>\n

MY DOMAIN IS COMPLETE (for the present) ,for those following my domain, this is to advise that Chapters 21 and 22 have completed my analysis of tax reform issues for the moment. Before I set out to edit and refine it for a book, I will complete and publish HOW COMPULSORY SUPER HAS FAILED AUSTRALIA AND PENALIZED MANY PEOPLE. This will not be on a freely accessible domain because it is highly marketable and much more important than sensible tax reform. Apparently our PM lectured the USA decision makers about how our compulsory super is better than their voluntary $1,000 annual subsidy to those without a 401. He or his speech writers should look at Rob Coyte\u2019s Table posted yesterday about personal debt in the two countries. Ours is much higher than in USA and housing costs are far lower and many people get tax deductions for interest payments on their house loans.<\/p>\n
