Whilst we're on the subject of cockpunching, this whole "WE NEED TO TAX GAS EXPORTS!!" is making my blood boil.

We need to have *everyone* paying taxes owed, particularly billionaires.

We need companies contributing to emissions to be paying for the damage.

That's a metric fuckton more than gas exporting companies who have never paid tax, and no one has told us how they're going to extract these taxes from them magically now.

Berdimuhamedov’s Beijing Visit and the Reshaping of Central Asia’s Gas System

#MarkOggy may have hit the nail on the head when he wrote:
‘The secrecy around government interactions with the gas industry means that we can only guess why our elected representatives have failed us so badly on this issue. But one thing we can say with certainty is that many of our politicians are too close to the gas industry.’

Whatever the reason all govts have so far utterly failed to look after the interests on ordinary Australians. Now, with more economist finally coming to their senses and pushing for more tax revenue to be garnered off #GasExports , it might give #AlboPM the excuse he needs (because #Chalmers certainly doesn’t need it) to finally be ‘progressive’ as the Labor Party ought to be.

Why Labor and the Coalition fear David Pocock’s gas inquiry

Last week, Senator David Pocock proposed a Senate inquiry into the “extraordinarily low rates of revenue Australians receive from the export of our gas resources.”

I hate to belabour the point… well, actually, no I don’t. But to put some perspective into Senator #DavidPocock defeated motion to set up a Senate Committee to take a look at #GasExports, here is an interesting article from The Point (Australian Institute) that should have been tabled in the Senate along with the motion (can you do that in the Senate? I don’t know) talking about: ‘New analysis shows Japan is emerging as a major player in global gas trading, despite producing no liquefied natural gas of its own – and it’s all thanks to Australia.’

Japan’s rise as an LNG trader driven by resale of cheap Australian gas, reigniting calls for gas export tax

New analysis shows Japan is emerging as a major player in global gas trading, despite producing no liquefied natural gas of its own – and it’s all thanks to Australia.

Queensland—and Australia as a whole—must implement a tax on gas exports from Gladstone. An alarming 75% of East Coast gas is shipped overseas, mainly to China, while households and businesses in the eastern states struggle with shortages and soaring prices. We need to put Australians first and secure an affordable domestic supply.
