Default Wow, that was unexpected.

NOT.

In case you were wondering, WA has NEVER repealed a tax it instated whether is said it would or not. Once the foot is on the door, prepare to have it shoved open.

Default Because social services should be paid for by tourists and sporting event patrons.

Makes perfect sense. . . WTF?!

Default I bet you use to listen to that on your walkman, wearing biker shorts, a hypercolor t-shirt and

matching swatch watch.

Makes as much sense as sports venues being paid for by people who never go to the games.

Default At least that decision was given to the populace.

This is now simply a case of politicians wanting a bigger piggy bank to play with.
