WilliamPowell:
Just listening to the wireless and people are saying the shouldn't be "forced" to give and why should they pay the levy if they've already given.
Maybe that's part of the issue? What about people who can afford to donate the flood fund but haven't simply because they are tight bums? If this is going to make tham do then bloody well good
I know someone who earns lots and hasn't donated because they reckon it aint there problem. >:( This levy or tax will catch them and force them to help out = good ;D

What about those people that were going to donate but now wont because of this? There are lots of them
Regarding that person you know i find that actually quite sad to be honest and im glad people like have to fork out. Karma will come back and bite him one day
If i knew 100% this tax wouldnt continue beyond 12 months it wouldnt bother me as much but do we really know.
I cant trust any of them anymore. Libs are just as likely to raise GST when they take over in 3 years.

One household on 1x 100k wage = you pay the tax ($250 odd)
One household on 2x 50k wage = you don't pay the tax.
Hmmm......

Get over it
Cut out one cigarette a day is all you need to do, or one latte less a week
