GST adds far too much
I am very disappointed with the Government for not removing the GST from vegetables and other essential foods.
GST adds far too much to the cost of living - the most annoying is the GST added to the price of petrol after the tax has been applied, thus making us pay tax on tax.
It is time for the Government to re-appraise the administration of GST - if it wishes to make the cost of living affordable.
