The Debit Tax Formula

 The Debit Tax Formula is simply an added percentage, one third of one percent (0.33%) is suggested,
to the amount withdrawn from all accounts by Banking and Financial institutions.
This tax, when cleared, is instantly deposited through the Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) system into the National Treasury.

How The Debit Tax Works

 Every hour of the day money is withdrawn from savings accounts,cheque accounts, insurance companies, business and investment organisations, and financial institutions of all kinds. Indeed, ALL monetary transactions are withdrawn from some type of bank or financial institution that holds money in trust.

The Australian Payments System Council Report 1991 - 1992, issued by the Reserve Bank of Australia, states that $120 BILLION is withdrawn from banks EVERY WORKING DAY in ordinary business and trading.

Just one simple and moderate Debit Tax of ONE THIRD OF ONE PERCENT (0.33%) added on all monies withdrawn provides the National Treasury with an annual revenue of $99 BILLION (See Debit Tax Table)

A Debit Tax of ONLY 0.33% on DAILY withdrawals of $120 BILLION

EQUALS

$396 MILLION IN FEDERAL REVENUE DAILY

EQUALS

$99 BILLION IN FEDERAL REVENUE YEARLY

These figures are based on the 1991 - 1992 Reserve Bank Report of NON CASH withdrawals.
The amount of CASH withdrawals made from ATM's and EFTPOS, and withdrawals made on week-ends and public holidays are NOT taken into account here. It is estimated that a more realistic figure for 1995 is around $200 BILLION IN WITHDRAWALS PER WORKING DAY.

A Debit Tax of ONLY 0.33% on DAILY WITHDRAWALS of $200 BILLION

EQUALS

$660 MILLION IN FEDERAL REVENUE DAILY

$165 BILLION IN FEDERAL REVENUE YEARLY

The Government requires $96 Billion in revenue per year.
The Debit Tax System provides the Government with an ANNUAL SURPLUS OF $69 BILLION

Disadvantages of our present system

Our current outmoded Tax System has proven to be complicated and impracticable to businesses and individuals.
It has many disadvantages:

  1. It pushes production out of Australia, creating an imbalance in trade and our increasing overseas debt.
  2. It is inequitable and unjust.
  3. It is costly in time and money.
  4. It is complicated.
  5. It destroys incentive.
  6. It penalises individuals who wish to succeed.
  7. It is taxing on small business.
  8. It creates tax avoidance and cheating.
