 Hello Brenton,

 BV> This Medicare Levy thing has me disturbed too. It sets a *nasty*
 BV> precedence and I don't like it one little bit. Of course this is an
 BV> ideal time for one of my favorite little lines...

 DM> It has the nasty smell of the 3x3 petrol levy .....

 BV> That's not what bothers me about it. It's the principle. He has set
 BV> a scary precedence whereby any other dickhead will now just suggest
 BV> that they jack up the Medicare Levy whenever they want to nickle and
 BV> dime us. That's what I am opposed to.

 So what's the 3x3 then ? Something different ? I think not. It
 certainly wasn't 3cents for 3 years.

 BV> Oh, and FWIW, I don't think
 BV> that the government should be in the compensation business.

 It shouldn't be in any business.

 It shouldn't be in business.

 It should be run like a business.

 Dieter
