health care funding plan dismissed


A "Robin Hood"-style tax on financial transactionsto raise money for the public health system has been dismissed by the South Australian Treasurer.
The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (ANMF) wants the Commonwealth and state governments to consider a 0.05 per cent tax on financial transactions....
"What is clear is that we do not want in Australia a United States-style funded health system," he said.
