Farmers will not Escape – Exemptions or Not, ETS is Still a Tax
“The farming sector will still pay more for inputs such as fertilizer,electricity,fuel and transport and because they have always been price takers you can guarantee ETS charges levied on food processors will end up being paid by the farmer.
“Exempting agriculture is like being thrown from a 10th floor window instead of a 20th floor window – the result is the same.”
Senator John Williams, Senator for NSW, Nov 2009.
