Have been reading the threads on LPG vs Petrol.
With the emergence of electic powered vehicles that can be re-charged from a domestic power point, I must ask the question. How will the government collect the excise on the re-charge? I have no problem with the GST as they will get that from the electricity account. Will the government go bankrupt? |

 will the goverment go broke cracks me up the only way the goverment will go broke if there is no more money to be taken from us . Cost of power will go up they will feed us some story about those resources are runing short and the price will go up just like the price of oil . An its allready getting set up its called the carbon offset scheme or somthing An i challenge you to name one scheme in place that the goverment does not benefit from |

Surely we can't be talking about our caring, sharing, Rudd government here? After all their entire platform is based on consultation, caring for the environment and making Australia a better and greener place for all Australians - a place in which everyone can grow and reach their full potential as healthy and happy vegemite fed citizens all walking hand in hand toward a better future.
Don't worry I'll wake up shortly. Russ

It doesn't matter. They come up with some BS surcharge and tax to cover it.
ETS anyone? |

Correct. It's called a carbon trading scheme.
