Write to Kevin Rudd and tell him you think that this is an anwesome concept and he should help MAKE IT HAPPEN!
What is it?
The Robin Hood Tax is a tiny tax on financial speculation by investment banks, hedge funds and other finance institutions that would raise billions to tackle poverty and climate change, at home and abroad.
It can start as low as 0.005 per cent — and average 0.05 per cent. But when levied on the billions of dollars moving round the global finance system daily through transactions like as foreign exchange, derivatives and share deals, it could raise hundreds of billions of dollars annually.
