What is the very first thing gillard did when she came in? she cut a new resources tax with the mining company's and scrapped kevin rudds. A deal which has since gained fuck-all in tax revenue.
Are you naive enough to think that the the most powerful, influential industry in australia would cut a deal days after a new PM takes power?
Use your head mate.
One of the goddam reasons we got a carbon tax is because they needed more revenue to build the infrastructure projects they where looking at, because the mining resources tax in it's weakened state was giving us NO revenue, and something had to pay for the NBN, the changes to mental health, the gonski reform, the disability scheme ect.
