All the exempted vehicles are imports - Goods carrying.
Why not exempt all Aussie made vehicles which would make sales boom, employ more people who pay more tax and if the local car makers become profitable, we won't have to bail them out with taxpayer funds. The announcement Rudd made before the election cost Ford around 20% of sales in a month, people in leasing companies lost their jobs over night, etc. It was another "Banana Republic" moment with dramatic consequences. Government policy seems to give with one hand, and stab you in the back with the other hand. Cheers Greg |
