The only one he claims is the GST, but it does not change behaviour. I'm not going to eat any less, you're not going to eat any less because our food is GST taxed or our hair is going to stop growing. The GST changes nothing. It's not a behavioural structural changer.

I'm buggered if I understand what he's getting at there. How many of his self proclaimed unique reforms changed behavior? Did floating the dollar change behavior, did giving the Reserve Bank those powers change behavior?

He never ever mentions how he won an election opposing the GST which he really supported.

That said - we could do with him being still around.
