A little off topic, I overheard some people talking Brexit this morning. They were pondering if the exit had of came before the Scottish indepence vote, would it have changed the outcome. Then I wondered too.
I'm not sure that was my question or I don't comprehend the amswer, so I will rephrase. If Britain voted to exit the EU before the Scottish vote for independence occurred, would Scottland have been more likely to vote for independence from Britain? In essence I guess would Scottland have preferred membership to the EU over the commonwealth?No, because even with a very strong "stay in the EU" vote from Scotland, England still voted to leave.
I have no doubt they would have chosen the EU over the UK.I'm not sure that was my question or I don't comprehend the amswer, so I will rephrase.

I was surprised the independence vote didn't get up. I have no solid basis for that position, just their history of fighting for freedom.I have no doubt they would have chosen the EU over the UK.
I know which one I'd prefer!I guess would Scottland have preferred membership to the EU over the commonwealth?
Yep, me too.I was surprised the independence vote didn't get up. I have no solid basis for that position, just their history of fighting for freedom.
Bad pun I know, but that movie...so factual and inspiring! How could they let Mel Wallace down???
Antarctica?I know which one I'd prefer!
Firstly trickle down ... Speaking from first hand experience ... Yes I believe in trickle down, I live trickle down ..
Sole traders already have access to the same tax free threshold as any other individual, but (as you have touched on) they have a greater access to deductions. Some of which are exploited or abused. In some scenarios partnerships have a similar access. And these 2 trading set ups make up a significant % of small business. So the issue for small business is probably outside of taxation and more around incentives and support.On a small business scale, I think "trickle down" as a theory has merit, but on an economy wide scale I think there is enough evidence over the last 20 ish years now to show it just isn't working.
That's why I'd be more in favour of something like a tax-free threshold for business rather than a straight cut to the corporate tax rate. This would disproportionately benefit smaller businesses, which I think is a good thing. That being said, all the small businessmen I know use business tax deductions to benefit their personal expenses, so I'd be surprised if there are many companies paying the full 30%.
Are we neighbours?Suspect my actual vote wont make any difference. Safe seat since before the convicts arrived. Still the more that 'protest vote' against the reigning party the more likely our local area to be heard on the federal scene.
Thankfully not next door neighbours :scared:, but yes. Lake Macquarie.Are we neighbours?
I'm a great neighbour...Thankfully not next door neighbours :scared:, but yes. Lake Macquarie.
