Water - January 18th 2011

This State Government is the limit! They've floated the idea that they will tax farmers for the RAINWATER they store on their properties! The short-sighted, mealy-mouth, money-grubbing mongrels. As one farmer put it, would the Government pay him rental on the dam and pumping equipment he put in?
I remember a year or two ago, this same Government wanted to tax home-owners on the amount of rainwater they had in their rainwater tanks.

Words almost fail me.

Here we go again - a new year and already our State Treasurer is bleating about how hard done by he is. Try living on the aged pension, Mr. Foley, and see how you manage.
