That line is factually incorrect. I pay that tax to the government not Qantas!
as my teacher once said - "read the question!".
I did not say that employees pay tax to Qantas. I was in fact pointing out that as a large employer Qantas generates tax to the government by employing lots of folks. As has rightly been said elsewhere company tax is paid only on profits. No profit or losses then no tax. Don't forget the massive payroll tax QF generates. some 4% of the payroll and so it goes on. I'm amazed at the ignorance of some..
