The rich chuck a sook about CGT (+ understanding the middle classes)
from Red Flag Radio · host redflag
Since Labor's budget dropped we've heard a chorus of whingers and sooks from the business class (though they call themselves 'founders' and 'entrepreneurs') about having a few of their tax dodges taken away. In this episode we explain why they should stfu, why Labor can barely defend their own measures, and how much further socialists want to go in taxing the rich (and expropriating them). We also explain the Marxist theory of the middle classes. We thought it'd be pertinent given all this petty bourgeois whining.
