You'll probably get locked out, and it'll take 'em a month to reply to the support ticket for warranty.

Yeah mobile data is crazy expensive here, the only other place off the top of my head that gets screwed like we do is Canada.

Not really no, I haven't been to a petrol station in years. I know that you have a learning difficulty which impairs your comprehension,…

The 3M 8205 like the ones at Bunnings are great. The plastic clamshell packaging can be used to hold the mask so it doesn't get dirty when…

> Where did the other $800 go? Not relevant. But, for the low income earner it most likely would eventually be spent on basic necessities…

Uhh... You really need to read the link that you posted yourself again. Read it really slowly and really really really carefully. Let me…

Explain to me, by using the link and definition you posted of regressive tax, how GST is not regressive? Because the article you posted…

> In both your example incomes ($200 and $1000) the exact same percentage of GST is paid. >That is neither a regressive tax nor a…

> If two incomes (using your example - $200 and $1000) both attract the same percentage of GST paid, how is that regressive? Because that…

Its okay, you've dug yourself into a hole and have no idea about economics or accounting or equitability or how various tax systems work…

>you'll quickly see how the two different incomes lead to the same overall tax paid percentages. And this is where your oversimplified…

> the same tax gets paid. Literally not the point. You don't even understand the difference between regressive and progressive taxation.…

You really need to go back to intermediate school and retake the economics they teach 11 year old children. Although I doubt that you will…

Since you're incapable of grasping a very simple concept that is literally taught to 11 year old children, I think there really is no point…

Again, you have nothing intelligent to say.

>the same percentage tax is paid on both incomes. Holy shit, you still don't get it.

Have been audited by both IRD and ATO in the past three years... Neither found any shortcomings, primarily because it is all automated and…

>By your analogy, zero is a negative number. Its okay, you don't know what a regressive tax. Its fine to admit that you don't know what…

It certainly does indeed seem like the very fairest tax you can get. Regressive taxes, like GST, have a much higher impact on low income…

Yes, GST is a "flat" tax... Which is exactly what makes it a regressive tax. So yeah, seems like you have no idea what a regressive tax is.

Yes, and GST is a regressive tax because it is applied uniformly. Maybe you're the one that doesn't know what a regressive tax is?

GST is a regressive tax, and perfectly fine for more luxurious products and services. However those that struggle the most, pay the most…
