Well if that is what he is talking about, increasing the GST to 15% will make no difference! An increase in the GST rate won't discourage current practices!

The guy who started this thread is probably a toilet cleaner at the ATO - he has no idea what he is talking about.

He initially said he was a "normal PAYG taxpayer", then later he said he was an IT Contractor at the ATO..... so what is he really?? His 2 different descriptions of his employment status are at odds with one another.
