this has been aaaalllllllll over the news recently, but im surprised i have seen nothing on here. (unless i have just missed it, i did do a search though)
tell us what you think about the tax? and whether it well affect us in a positive or negative way.
IMO the tax is a good idea, the mining bosses hate the idea because it is going to cost them money, i think, these huge company's wealth should be shared around, after all this is the stuff that lies beneath OUR feet! i dont think this will affect the mining companies. the minerals in the ground are worth way too much for them not to dig it up, so ofcourse they are going to dig it up.
but on the other hand, it may cause the companies to start new projects to re-coupe some of their loss, which will create more jobs, and make mining industry even stronger, but could be detrimental to the environment.
i dont really know much about the tax. if anyone is will to give a brief run-down of the scheme, im sure many would appreciate it.
