ATO

[The Bleeder]

Just checked mine...St George.....yes it was there so I deleted it.

Didn't complain or say that I couldn't, it just deleted it.

Will check tomorrow to see if it comes back.

"You can’t delete The Australian Taxation Office (ATO)"

Looks like they are going for a good old fashioned Cyprus-style smash and grab.

To be honest, my gut feeling says that something is well and truly in the wind.

It hasn't appeared on either of my accounts yet.

To be honest, my gut feeling says that something is well and truly in the wind.

#1: Big super companies will be forced to buy a certain percentage of their holdings into "government super bonds"... a BIG percentage, which will grow each year (or "emergency")
#2: SMSF neg gearing killed
#3: Depositors tax ... no interest any more. You pay to store cash at the bank. Banks are beginning to get hit with negative interest rates in the overnight bond and interbank exchanges.
#4: Direct confiscation of your "surplus" cash into GSB's. Have more than 10, 50, 100k? .... Leave it lying there for a few weeks and BAM! .... Certificate issued of course... just try getting it back as "cash" in a hurry. hahahaha!
#5: All SMSF funds will be forced to deposit most, if not all, value into GSB's with the promise of a "pension yield".

A titanic debt deflation is working its way through the pipeline. 1600 Trillion in derivatives are beginning to unwind.

The ATO is now there so theres no doubt as to who is confiscating what.

Nothing beats speculation and rumor.
Defies all logic.
