If the Government intends fining people for putting up prices “unreasonably” due to the carbon tax, and therefore putting them in jail if they refuse to pay the fine, I say “bring it on” because that’ll be the last nail in the coffin of this Labor Government. One thing that brought Bob Askin to power was that the then State Labor Government was putting small shopkeepers in jail for contravening trading hours. Nothing so alienates people as bully-boy tactics by Governments.
