'when current Chair Danielle Wood worked at the Grattan Institute, she was concerned about fossil fuel subsidies, but since taking on a government-funded role, she has not been able to spot a single fossil fuel subsidy worth her Commission’s attention...as long as groups like the Productivity Commission remain resolute that it is only those with the least who receive too much from the government, we will never be able to restore productivity growth or the population’s faith in democracy'

The latest #AustraliaInstitute podcast with Allan Behm and host Dr. Emma Shortis contains an interesting observation about one of the factors behind #USia being so thoroughly outwitted by #Iran; namely, that #American "diplomats" / negotiators just aren't that bright, skilled, or educated, when compared to their Iranian counterparts.
#USPol folks might find it interesting as an external perspective.

RE: https://mastodon.au/@smitjo/116373831420467209
Why aren't Australia Institute live tracking:
1. how many deaths are caused by not leaving that gas in the ground?
2. export taxes owed from all fossil fuel exports, including coal, iron ore (diesel rebate, uses coal to be processed) and industrial agriculture such as meat?
3. damages from fossil fuel emissions?
3. untaxed wealth from Australia's 170 billionaires who are currently taxed at a rate of 0.8%?

We've given away $63.8 billion in gas export windfalls since 2022 while families struggle with childcare & uni fees.
A simple 25% LNG export tax could've funded free university/TAFE OR free childcare for years. -

“Guardian Australia has spoken with several other Labor MPs who believe there is support within caucus for the change.
One Labor MP, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said, “I’m getting a lot of heat and I think David Pocock’s run a pretty good campaign on this.”
A ‘campaign’??? Yes, as far as politicians are concerned, it boils down to #electionability and nothing else. Never mind that what #SenDavidPocock has done (along with the #AustraliaInstitute) is to shed light on the #GasExport #Rort and that everyday Australians are paying for the outragous #Profits #Corporate gas companies are making (not to speak of the #Japanese #onselling of Australian gas - the Australian cow that keeps giving away free milk).
“They [unnamed Labor politicians] said reform on gas export taxes in the budget was important, but said Labor would have to go harder on gas companies than the current PRRT, or there would “not be much point”.
As well they should. ‘Bout time Labor did something that requires #gumption IMO. Go fast, go hard. Ignore #FossilFuelINdustries bleeting noises, it’s all #lies and #disinformation in any case.

Aussies pay more tax on a stubby than the gas barons pay on billions in exported LNG.
Senator Pocock is spot on: time to end the great gas giveaway. Slap a flat 25% tax on exports, rake in billions for housing, health, & renewables instead of letting multinationals leach our resources for peanuts.
Beer taxes > PRRT? That’s not a policy, that’s a scam. Fix it now!

Aussies are stunned: Treasury just confirmed we’ll rake in $2.7B from beer excise in 2025-26… but only $1.5B from PRRT on our massive offshore gas exports. We’re one of the world’s biggest LNG exporters, yet multinational gas giants pay less tax than punters pay on a slab.
This is broken. Gas companies dodge super-profits tax with endless deductions while everyday drinkers get slugged. Time to fix PRRT, slap on real royalties or a flat export tax, and build a proper sovereign wealth fund for future generations—not corporate handouts.
Why are we taxing beer harder than billion-dollar gas rip-offs? Tax the extractors, not the exhausted.

#EnvironmentLaws #FossilFuels #ALP and #Coalition
the #AustraliaInstitute has launched a petition;
they say “Environment Minister Murray Watt is working on a deal to rewrite our federal environment laws. This is necessary, because everyone agrees our existing laws are failing.
But instead of working with the Greens and independents to strengthen them, Labor is seeking a deal with the Coalition. It means Australia’s new environment laws will need the support of climate sceptics like Matt Canavan, who recently called for renewable projects to be replaced by new coal plants.
What we need is strong environment laws that actually bring an end to new coal and gas projects.
Add your name to demand strong environment laws that can stop new coal and gas now!
———
“To the Hon. Murray Watt MP, Minister for the Environment --
The Australian public voted for a climate majority at the last election, and we want strong environment laws that can stop new coal and gas.
Every new coal and gas mine damages nature. We urge you to strengthen – not weaken – Australia's environment laws.
