Senator Gerard RennickAustralia is getting ripped off by Multinationals.
ㅤ
In Estimates I asked the Tax Commissioner why Pfizer can get away with claiming 93 cents in the dollar as expenses when their markup was almost 1000% on some products.
ㅤ
To be honest I didn’t get a satisfactory answer. It’s not just a question of where value is created but also where profit is obtained.
ㅤ
The idea that Pfizer Ireland incurred all the risk is absurd. The risk was bourne by Australians who were treated like guinea pigs by Pfizer.
ㅤ
Multinationals should be made to pay their fair share of tax.

https://t.me/AussieTruckiesUnite/140857 an excellent point from the good senator
Rennick is yet
another conspiracy nutjob...
Why is it that apparently well-educated, articulate people such as
it_is_the_light
and
Aquascoot
get sucked in by so many of these
conspiracy theories from all sorts of nutters—from vaccinations to
climate change to political cabals etc?
• In September 2018 Rennick advocated closer ties with Russia because
"they're part of the West;
they drink, they're Christians, they play
soccer, they're Caucasian". He's called for de-escalating tensions
with Vladimir Putin and Russia.
• He called Labor's policy of providing free childcare to all three-year-olds
in Australia
a conspiracy "to strengthen the role the state has in raising
a child at the expense of parents".
• In December 2021, Rennick's claims that the COVID vaccines amounted
to "
experimenting" on children, and his anti vaccine posts on Facebook,
were rebutted by multiple health officials.
• Rennick is a
denier of climate science. He's questioned the Australian
government's Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) about its falsifying of climate
data, and has promoted the
conspiracy theory that the bureau is tampering
with climate data to "perpetuate global warming hysteria."
—I'm repeatedly confounded as to how these sorts of mental midgets
(as per Trump) actually succeed in getting into politics. Where are
the politicians who're clear thinkers and at the least attempt to do
their best for the electorate?
Why do we end up with the Rennick's of the world? The bottom feeders?
