We have to link together like an internet cobweb. The More spiders the better

What you can do besides writing to editors, politicians, and speaking up, is to become followers on as many blogs and forums and twitter sites which oppose the Resource Super profit Tax, as possible. If you forward information on the tax to as many people as possible, you will raise awareness. This tax is unconstitutional, and PRRT contains secrecy clauses, which means if you were a "whistleblower" you could be liable for $10,000 fine and or 2 years jail. Worse still, you could not present any documents relating to that company to the court.

When you become a follower, you help raise the status of the campaign. You can Email our cartoons, or pics. use them as screensavers and as an opportunity to raise the Supertax issue. Respect our efforts by adding our links, and giving credit for our volunteered work.

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd has promised more than $2 billion in infrastructure funding for Queensland as he continues the hard-sell of his mining tax.
Queensland and Western Australia are each getting more than $2 billion for infrastructure under a new $6 billion regional infrastructure fund, using proceeds from the super-profits tax.
Mr Rudd on Friday confirmed Queensland could expect a $2 billion boost from the fund.
The state's mining centres such as Mackay, Gladstone, Rockhampton and Townsville will be able to compete for the funding, he said in a statement.
"The government believes it is time to put something back into the mining communities, and those communities which support them, that give so much to Australia and make our national economy strong," the statement said.
"That means more rail, roads, ports, and other crucial infrastructure to support the workforce in critical mining regions and in communities that support mining regions."
The announcement came as Mr Rudd met with miners and representatives from the Construction, Forestry, Mining, Energy Union at the Mackay Surf Club.
Earlier in the day, Mr Rudd was forced to hose down reports a compromise on the super-profits resource tax was imminent.
He said there was still "weeks and probably months" of consultation with Australia's big mining companies ahead for the government.
Comment was being sought from the Queensland government.
