 The Gillard Government’s announcement that they will impose a Carbon Tax is a breach of faith with the Australian public, and ranks with Paul Keating’s infamous L.A.W. tax cuts breach of faith from the early 1990’s. |
During the final week of last year’s election campaign both Prime Minister Julia Gillard and Treasurer Wayne Swan promised they would not introduce a Carbon Tax.
It was the key message they wanted in the public’s mind. But now they are going to impose a new tax that will stifle economic growth and put key Australian industries at a distinct disadvantage to overseas rivals.
The Gillard Government’s Carbon Tax will lead to increases in fuel and electricity prices for local families, many already at the limit of what they can afford to pay.
