The Greens MP Adam Bandt said Blanchett was just as entitled to campaign for a carbon price as Australia's richest woman, Gina Rinehart, was entitled to campaign against the mining tax.

''Where was [Mr Abbott] when the richest person in Australia, Gina Rinehart came out and spent tens of millions of dollars of their own money on advertisements to kill a very fair mining tax proposal?'' he said.

Did she spend her personal wealth or use/extend the company advertising budget therefore depriving shareholders of a larger dividend?
Remember this tax was to reduce small business company tax to 30%, you know those struggling families facing cost of living pressures Tony bangs on about.
Also to build infrastructure to help these large companies get their product to the ships.

Blanchett was paid to say what she said.
And the Co2 tax will not impact upon her lifestyle.

There is no such thing as small business company tax.

Tax rate deductions to companies are a waste of time, because the dividends get passed onto the shareholders, then taxed at their marginal tax rate anyway.

Reductions for small business in the way of company tax rate decreases are just political hogwash because to get the funds out to the actual owners we need to pay it in the form of a dividend.

If that dividend is franked at 28% or 30% its no different at the time for the company, because in the hands of the shareholder is where the real taxation revenue is generated.

Oh, and company tax is already 30%.
