[luv-talk] GST

Tony Abbott wants to increase GST and apply it to more items. The Liberal goal of increasing taxes on poor people is going well. Of course they could reduce the threshold for GST on imports and apply it to all those Kogan phones imported from Hong Kong for example, among other things that would help companies that actually run the businesses in Australia. But even taxing $500 phones would tend to hit the wealthier people and the multinational phone companies instead of poor people and farmers. -- Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 with K-9 Mail.
