They will also pay the amount that businesses will no doubt need to pass on to consumers. Renters will not miss-out, they will have this tax passed on to them through their rent/lease, as well as the share passed on by businesses. So believe this- you will pay this tax more than once. Prepare for an increase to your everyday cost of living.

They are blaming the community for what Jacinta is doing and it’s not our fault. You sign up to be emergency service responders but now they are refusing to help the community in their time of need. At the end of the day, going offline is effecting the community, not Jacinta - she won’t be paying the consequences of someone losing their house or even loved one by the CFA going offline. Wrong way to go about it, I support the buses going to Melbourne, but not going offline.
