Think you have a problem making ends meet?
Spare a thought for our enlightened leaders in Canberra, who have found
revenues from fuel excise to have
fallen far short of expectations. This is largely because of rising
fuel prices and selfish motorists cutting down on driving.
If you're a good, patriotic Australian, you know what to do: throw away
your bicycle, stop taking the train and buy a monster-truck-sized 4WD for
your grocery shopping.
