SYDNEY (AP) — "Crocodile Dundee" star Paul Hogan has resolved his seven-year battle with Australian tax authorities over alleged unpaid taxes dating back to his first international hit movie in the 1980s.
Hogan and his friend and producer John Cornell said through their lawyer, Andrew Robinson, on Monday that the pair had reached a settlement with tax authorities to resolve more than 150 million Australian dollars ($156 million) in alleged unpaid taxes and penalties.

Who the hell owes 156 mil in taxes? This is crazy talk. He could rebound the economy of a third world nation with this type of cash. Gov’t is money stealers.

The best I could find out was that Paul Hogan is worth between $10 and $20 million.
So it’s not from him the Australian tax authorities will be getting it from. It’s possible the courts ordered the profits from Crocodile Dundee get tied up until it’s settled, so possibly there.

Warren "My taxes are too low" Buffett owes $1B, but has been fighting it in court without media coverage.

I learned a long time ago that you can't fight them once you attract their attention.
They have unlimited resources and will battle with you and your heirs into future generations.

Look for a Crocodile Dundee sequel or two to pay for the tax hit.

“Aussie dollars are worth more than American dollars?”
It’s the wonders of unrestrained money printing by the federal reserve. 3 years ago it was about 60 Australian cents to the US dollar now they have a slight edge. Of course the only one talking about this is that “nut case” Ron Paul, but hey I’m sure the true conservatives in the GOP will get around to doing something about this ... or not.

Yep, we’ve been sold down the river by both the RATs and the GOP in favor of their banker buddies. This is THE MOST important issue of the day and no one want to talk about it.
