Chinese manufacturers might also be a little bit annoyed by the latest efforts by Gerry Harvey and other retailers to undermine online sales with the extension of the GST to foreign sales. Their arguments are less persuasive since there is no reason for thinking that the tax impacts on them unreasonably. i.e. They don't pay the tax. They could however argue that the tax impacts on their sales and jobs. i.e. If we purchase more online imports, we might but less from Harvey Norman which is probably inclined to stock well-known brands.
The role of this blog is to draw attention to the extortion efforts of retailers, who are lobbying the government to increase taxes on Australian consumers.
