Resource Revenue Distribution and Housing Affordability in Australia
This chapter compares Australia's approach to Norway's successful model of taxing resource sales and using the revenue to fund government projects. It discusses the consequences of Australia's failure to levy direct taxes on mining, resulting in the concentration of wealth in a few individuals or international companies. It also touches on other economic issues such as housing affordability.
