Social engineering at its best

The Greens have secured a Productivity Commission review into fuel excises, which could ultimately make all drivers pay more for petrol. The Greens said they would continue to push for fuel to be priced in a way that reflected its impact on the environment.

“We want Australians to drive less and … drive more efficiently,” deputy leader Christine Milne said last night.

Well I want you to but out of my life and stick to cuddling Koalas.

“In particular, we should change the fuel excise regime from a simple revenue-raiser into a real driver for change, taxing more polluting fuels more and cleaner fuels less,” Senator Milne said.

Fuel should be a means of powering vehicles, not a “real driver for change”. Stupid woman!
