Quotes of the Week
"the average
tax evader may be financially better off even after they're caught and
penalised" [Chris Leech, writing about low tax
evasion penalties applied bythe
Australian Taxation Office in an unpublished study, quoted in The Age, 24
March 2018]
“Civil
disobedience and protest are vital in a democracy. They open up political space
for communities to intervene when the doors of governments are closed to them,
and the price of entry to corporate boardrooms and political party fundraisers
is beyond reach.” [Barrister
Julian Burnside writing in The
Sydney Morning Herald, 25 March 2018]
