Yes because when times are not great and there are already weakening economic signs - introducing a new tax which will raise of cost of living for millions of families is such an excellent idea.....


of course! labor wisdom is to bring in a new tax that will hit the economy hard just when the economy is taking a battering. A competent party would at least delay its introduction. But not the ALP.


Yes longy that's right, the past has led to a dead end and those who created the dead end want everyone to freeze and do nothing until they come to the rescue. With what? more cheap credit no one can afford so we can work toward another recession. The ETS is not a tax, it is a major change of direction and re assessment of the way we think about how we treat the environment and how we are actually going to plan for a future without coal and oil which are limited and not going to last forever.


advertising copy and nothing more. in the REAL world the carbon tax will make not one iota of difference in emissions - just as it has failed miserably everywhere else. and by using compensation you destroy the very point of a punitive lever to change behaviour.
