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.

Fortescue not swayed by govt RSPT offer: report
QUICK SUMMARY | FULL STORY | RSPT | COMMENT
Iron ore miner Fortescue Metals Group Ltd has refused to be swayed by federal government attempts to entice the company to support the proposed 40 per cent resources super profits tax (RSPT), The Australian reports.
It is believed that Fortescue chief executive Andrew Forrest is not satisfied with the government's suggestion that the treatment of capital could be altered to help the company with large-scale borrowing to fund expansion.
The company is understood to have told Treasury officials that any such changes would merely be a short-term fix to suit one company, and would not solve the broader, long-term problems the mining industry sees with the tax, the newspaper said.
Mr Forrest has been a vocal opponent of the RSPT, and the government's suggestion is believed to be part of a concerted effort to break up the united wall of resistance from resource sector heavies.
Canberra's attempt to sway Fortescue highlights the ongoing struggle the government has had making any in-roads with persuading industry giants BHP Billiton Ltd, Rio Tinto Ltd and Xstrata to come on board.
Yesterday, Prime Minister Kevin Rudd urged mining companies not yet engaged in negotiations with the government over the resource super profits tax to do so now.
