*The Gas Cartel is Panicking*

"Never let a good crisis go to waste". Albo and Jim Chalmers have a
unique opportunity right now to fix the Budget and reshape Australia by
taxing the foreign gas exporters properly. A big majority in Parliament
- a 25% gas export tax is a no-brainer for $10B a year.

Standing in their way is a powerful gas lobby which lies and bribes hard
.. and the fossil media."

It figures!

Getting filthy rich on *our* natural resources while not giving a flying
fuck about *our* environment and the planet's future fossil fuel
magnates and their political and media tools are up in arms at the mere thought of anyone daring to question the current status quo.

But it is high time to end their glorious highway robbery on our wealth
and our well being.

I'd say, bring it on! Let's regulate the crap out of these unashamed
fossil fuel corporations. If Norway could do it, why can't we?
