How good was getting rid of part of the fuel excise - let's reduce our tax base significantly so they can just increase their prices and now make more profit because they know people will pay what it costs regardless.
Hopefully prices keep increasing so much people just can't afford to drive to work anymore and there's now a huge push for working from home that's currently being rolled back in an effort to repopulate the big offices in the CBD, or a transport strike with commercial vehicles that blocks all the major freeways.
Who remembers when Kazakhstan set their country on fire when fuel prices rose from .16/L to .32/L
