We Are Overtaxed!

Here is just another example.

AA recently broke down what we are paying in tax on our petrol. Here is an example on '91 at 132.9 cents/L.

* Crown account 18.71c.

* Land transport fund 22.49c.

* ACC levy 5.78c.

* Petroleum fuels monitoring levy 0.025c.

* Local authority petroleum tax 0.66.

* GST (based on 132.9c pump price) 14.76c.

That's a total of 62.43c tax per litre on our '91 petrol at the moment.

THIEVES!

Edit 8/7/5
Corrected typo in GST price.
Corrected total tax per litre.
