jase-r34 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Hey guys, sorry if this has been posted somewhere already, but I couldn't find it. I just thought I would post a link to an E petition against the government's rego increase. Link What are your thoughts on what the government is doing to us?? I know that my fuel bill is going to be at least $5 a week more with the extra tax. I already spend around $60-70 a week. And with the extra rego they want us to fork out, I just don't think it's fair!

Col-GTSX Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I got my rego today for my bike and my SS... Cry... Little change from $1500.......

babyskyline Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Its definitly bloody robbery. I just paid $750 for the rego on my r32....i remember being down in victoria a few years ago and for a year of rego on my r32 i was paying $400. The queensland goverment are money grabbing idiots who wouldnt have a clue how to spend money wisely or save money for the future. Bunch of tools they are. As for the fuel price going up by 8cents from the first of july its already gone up 5 cents and i can guarantee that another full 8cents will be wacked on come the first of july also.

skins Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 It's either increase the rego and can the 8 cent fuel rebate to help get us out of debt. OR sell off all the assets that make QLD money... oh wait they're doing that as well. Yep were getting screwed.

Brandon Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 I wonder if Anna has considered the domino effect of increased fuel prices... definately gonna cause inflation to go up. More expensive fuel = more exp. transport (public transport price increase, freight increase etc.), groceries/product price will go up as well or just about EVERYTHING. I suppose this is to combat the deflation which will probably happen when economy does pick up as how economist forcast and I think its still too early to predict anything. PS: I cant stand her.

boiracer Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 i agree its al crap, and i bet the 8 cents will look more like 9-10 at the pump. on another note, i thought V8's were less than 800 a year? im sure my mum pays about 720 for her stateo saw that my 6 months was 400 (what came with the car) and i almost fell over Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/275393-fuel-and-rego-price-rise/#findComment-4670516 Share on other sites More sharing options...
