Stop Tax Dodging: Help Developing Countries Earn Taxes They Deserve!

Developing countries are forced to lose hundreds of billions of dollars in tax revenue to wealthy foreign companies. Tax dodging companies are earning the money that could be used to send children to school, build needed infrastructure and feed malnourished people.

Tax incentives and havens supposedly encourage companies to invest, but in reality developing countries end up forgoing billions in potential revenue that could be put to much needed use.

Approximately $160 billion per year is doled out in tax breaks and incentives.The money lost in tax havens is three times the estimated cost of what's needed to end world hunger. 2.3 million children die each year from hunger and malnutrition.

Legislation that requires Australian companies to report profits and taxes for every country they operate in would break the cycle. Cutting secrecy and creating reporting requirements is the first step in seeing that developing countries earn the tax money that they need to end hunger and empower citizens!

Urge the government of Australian to require profit and tax reporting by companies operating in foreign countries and make sure that developing countries collect a fair tax!

Dear Prime Minister Abbott, 


I urge you and the government of Australia to set up much needed reporting requirements for Australia multi-national companies. These companies have been dogding taxes by setting up shop in developing nations that are providing tax havens and incentives. While in theory these tax breaks encourage investment, in reality the citizens of developing countries are not seeing any benefit. In fact, approximately $160 billion dollars are lost.

I encourage the government to take the first step in righting this wrong. By requiring profits and tax reporting for every country that a company works within, we can out the secret that these companies are stealing from deserving people. I'd rather see the money go towards ending world hunger, sending children to school and building hospitals, roads and more!


Sincerely, 


[Your name]
