Have to agree with the tail wheel.
User pays is a rort, and it might have been labour that introduced it but the Libs certainly haven't turned back the tide, in fact they seem to have enmbraced it. But then again the NSW labour government certianly haven't been backwards in going forward with the concept.
It might not be a bad concept if taxes were reduced accoringly, but that was also surposed to be the theory behind the GST. Introduce the GST and reduce a whole range of other taxes, but, what 9 or 10 years later some off them are still around.
As Mr T says - I pitty the fools (us-voters).
