Kwyjibo.
Howards words a clear, a 10 cent a litre reduction in the tax on fuel will cost $3.8 Billion.
Now it's DISTINCTLY POSSIBLE that Howard, an inveterate liar is presenting false information here.. but I have based my calculations on ACCEPTING that his figures are accurate.
The Federal government has two taxes on petrol, the Excise, and the GST. We were discussing the GST, (until the figures showed what a clueless twonk Kweerjabber is ;-)
At 139.4 cents a litre Howards excise is 37.3 cents-litre and Howards GST is 12.6 cents per litre.
Howard is saying that to REDUCE his 'fuel taxes' by 10 cents a litre would cost 3.8 billion. (There is no '10 cent a litre tax', as Kweerjabber will try and pretend! )
That's $3,800,000,000
or $380,000,000 for every ONE cent reduction.
$4.788 Billion actually, I was being conservative.
( $380,000,000 * 12.6 = $4,788,000,000 )
If you include the Excise in the calculation, (I was only discussing GST, and the Government has previously argued that Excises aren't taxes! (sic) but just to show what a COMPLETE f***ing TOSSER Kweerjabber is, lets calculate the TOTAL WINDFALL to the government including not only the GST, but the EXCISE AS WELL B^)
Excise is 37.3 cents per litre.
As a 10 cent reduction in Howards 'fuel tax' costs $3.8 billion, (his own words) then a cut of even 30 cents would cost $11.4 billion!!!!
Or to be precise, a cut of 37.3 cents would be;
$380,000,000 * 37.3 = $14,174,000,000
Hurricane of Lies 4019ferdie Thanks for trying, but it is his fault, not the least fault being the hiring of political crony Brown, and the public acknowledgement came yesterday as bush fired Brown...
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA
The poor f***ing mook, he didn't realise that the only reason I quoted Howards "10 Cent reduction in tax costs $3.8 Billion" is to have an GOVERNMENT benchmark to prove how much the GST gouges from us!
Towards a "Perfect World" without PovertyNow, why do I place "Perfect World" in inverted commars. Because I myself is not "perfect", neither the world I envisionalised, but I try to take away all the "imperfections...
Lets recap; based on Howard's figures, removing the GST would cost the government $4,788,000,000
Kweerjabber claims that $4+ billion is NOT a huge windfall gain! B^D
If we add in the cost of Howard removing the Excise AS WELL as the GST, then we would get back a further $14,174,000,000
presumably Kweerjabber still maintains that a COMBINED total, GST + EXCISE, a f***ING HUGE NINETEEN BILLION DOLLARS.. is also 'not a huge windfall"
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Anyone, (except morons like Kweerjabber) can do the maths from the basic data, and apply Howards $3.8 billion per 10 cents a litre variation.
Petrol Price per litre: 139.4
Oil company, distributor and retailer: 15.1
Howard's Federal Excise: 37.3 (25%)
Add those 3 together: 126.8 cents litre
Howards 10 % GST : 12.6 " "
So does Kweerjabber admit the clear proof that he's a complete tosser.
8^o
No, kweerjabber doesn't have the integrity to admit he is wrong. instead he tries to shift ground, in the most feeble, desperate and pathetic manner.. by lying;
And then you just repaste what I had already pasted! B^D
The EXACT SAME TEXT I HAD CITED! B^D What a whining, deceitful SOOK!
I had already given the citation. B^)
EXACTLY as I quoted! B^D That blows Kweerjabber out of the water
By the PM's OWN admission a 10 cents a litre tax gives a windfall $3,800,000,000 to the government.
Simply apply that to the 12.6 cents per litre GST and you get a FOUR BILLION, SEVEN HUNDRED AND EIGHTY EIGHT MILLION DOLLAR COST...
to the government, if Howard drops it..
to US if he doesn't.
WTF is kweerjabber whining and bleating about.
Why the f*** is he trying to avoif the facts?
I didn't 'neglect to mention' a f***ing thing, you lying poopig! B^D
He did not say 'fuel excise', and that is around 37 cents a litre, not 10 cents a litre!
Read again what he said, what I accurately quoted, what you ignored and then repasted! B^D
"The PM said it would not be sensible to cut fuel taxes,"
THE GST ON FUEL IS A TAX ON FUEL!!!! B^D
This isn't rocket science you f***ing moron...
If a 10 Cent reduction in tax on fuel costs $3.8 billion
then a 12.6 cent reduction in the Goods and Services TAX on FUEL costs $4.788 billion..
There is no doubt that cutting the OTHER Howard fuel tax, the Excise, would cost even more, around $14 billion..
but I'm sure you will be in even greater denial over that!
BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAA
You just explain to everyone how a GST on fuel is NOT a tax on fuel and how taking it off fuel will not reduce the governments tax take, (by $380 million for every cent, according to Howard), you mathematically challenged f***wit! B^D
..
Look you lunatic.. You don't CANCEL out the BILLIONS gouged by GST on fuel, by mentioning that billions more (uncosted by you) are gouged by GST on other items!!! B^D
One tory tax gouge does not REDUCE another, it COMPOUNDS IT!
Just as the GST on fuel is a tax on the Excise PLUS the production and distribution costs.. a COMPOUNDING of a tax on a tax!
You just makes my case for me! B^)
YOUR bullpoo claim.. just to rub your nose in it, was
"the idiocy of your claim that the government is making a huge windfall gain through the price of petrol"
As the price of petrol has approximately doubled since the GST was implemented, the Governments GST tax gouge has similarly doubled. Quite a windfall.
The excise further compounds the tax gouge.. but I hadn't got into that because I like to roast you over a slow fire. ;-)
So.. all you have to do is square that away with HOWARDS claim not mine, that to sacrifice 10 cents a litre of fuel tax would cost him $3.8 Billion.
You can use the figures of 37.3 cents-litre Excise and 12.6 cents-litre GST which I provided or you can provide your own calculations.. or, most likely, do as you have done to date... invent, lie, spin, evade, bullpoo and avoid the truth.
