    "While the gas is extracted from beneath Australian soils, the profits go almost entirely to large multinational companies. Research suggests gas companies have made roughly $A149 billion from exports in just four years. Only a small percentage of this profit has been taxed."

    "That’s why some politicians, think tanks and environmental groups are pushing for a 25% tax on gas exports.For decades, we’ve allowed foreign companies to earn billions of dollars from our gas sector, and to be taxed very little." >>

  11. Australia’s ‘strategic infantilisation’ by the US is undermining our security in Asia

    "We are a perennially anxious nation, seemingly unable to come to terms with the reality of our geographic position. We reflexively identify with faraway members of the Anglosphere, such as the United States and the United Kingdom. But even more consequentially, we outsource responsibility for our foreign and security policy to one great and powerful friend or another. "

    Others "view us as an appendage of America’s grand strategy, with little capacity for independent thought, much less action...This may spare our policymakers from the challenge of thinking independently. >>

  21. Australian biodiversity and imperial obsequiousness

    "The Australian government’s decision to allow the US mining giant Alcoa to continue clearing swathes of Western Australian jarrah forest despite past illegal clearing practices was made in part due to a critical minerals deal reached between Australia and the Trump administration last year, a new document shows."

    "...The government has prioritised corporate interests and foreign defence interests above the jarrah forests, the endangered species that rely on the forests and Perth’s drinking water – showing just how wrong their priorities are.”

    “In the twisted logic of Australia in the Trump age, the national interest lies not in honouring and protecting the beauty and richness of our natural heritage, but in sacrificing it to foreign mining companies.”
