Labors' Pattern Bargaining & I'm standing for the senate NSW
Miners are threatening to place ads during the election campaign.
well. so they should.
why? BECAUSE the Rudd/Gillard labor government engaged in PATTERN BARGAINING. essentially divide and conquer.
that's what the teamsters union do in the USA, and what our unions could do in AUSTRALIA. It's also what work choices was trying to stop.
LABOR picked an industry that they thought they could force to pay more money and one that they hoped that the voters would condone on moral grounds. THEN THEY picked only a few companies to force to an agreement. Then they would use that agreement to force others.
I oppose the mining tax because (1) it is against the constitution (you cannot create tax laws which might not treat the states fairly- in this case WA and QLD were being offered extra incentives.) and ( 2) because of this deceptive way of getting agreement instead of our representatives debating and creating a law about it..which could then be challenged in the supreme court.
(3) by abolishing the royalty system, labor is taking money from the states, and gaining more federally.
(4) Labor will target more industry sectors and bring them to heel one by one. It shouldn't be allowed.
(5) I also oppose the secrecy clauses in the PRRT (and in 176 other pieces of legislation.)
vote for me - Megan Sampson in the NSW senate.
