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to the amount withdrawn from all accounts by Banking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Every hour of the day money is withdrawn from savings accounts,cheque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are withdrawn from some type of bank or financial institution that holds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issued by the Reserve Bank of Australia, states that $120 BILLION is withdrawn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ONE PERCENT (0.33%) added on all monies withdrawn provides the National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)

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.
