    Can we not just take money off boomers or something?

    Maybe ban them from buying any landcruisers for 6 months or something.

    Taking money off people who dont have any money just sucks.

      This very discussion did come up the other week: ‘We’ve reached a breaking point’: Is it time to tax older Australians more?.

    What worries me is that I can’t see how inflation can’t go up, with the increased fuel cost getting added into all products and services.

    So, in a couple of months, they’ll see increased inflation, and raise the rates again.

    Which means it will get even tougher.
