The Economy Cult’s trick of the day. The GST. A loud cacophony of cultists have been desperate to raise it for years. Why do they love it? Because they gutted income and company tax, for their own benefit, so the budget is short, and what’s the best way to fix that? Slug the everyday working person with more indirect taxation on every single thing they buy. Again if we’re dumb enough to fall for it, we get the leaders we deserve.
