[bikeqld] RACQ poll on fuel subsidy (fwd)

[kim]

Or perhaps they could have asked:


As a taxpayer contributing to Queensland's revenue coffers, are you 
happy to be supporting bonuses paid to the fuel industry?
OR
Given that this excise subsidy is paid for by all taxpayers in 
Queensland and there necessarily has to be some 'losers' and some 
'winners' (if it was totally neutral it would be pointless) do you 
consider yourself one of the 'winners' in this scheme?
OR
Do you know how much tax you pay to support this scheme and whether it 
is more or less than the benefit you receive?
