Much as I hate tax like everyone else it is what pays for running the country, even if the pollies are botching it.
The sooner GST is applied to all privately imported good the better. Otherwise the government will need to find another source of revenue.
If you think retailers (other than the fashion rag trade) are ripping you off. Think about the people in the retail industry who are earning their living in sales. The overheads are enormous. Remember every item purchased overseas does nothing for the Australian economy and increases our overseas debt.
