According to my figures the excise is already 38% plus GST plus various other charges and taxes which are in the system plus the oil companies of course pay tax as do the transport companies
People do not fully understand our octopus type, convoluted tax system that we have where the government gets money from every movement of a product so when you get down to the base out of the ground production cost and then start putting fees, taxes, and charges for every single thing involved in the movement and sale of the product the Government get a lot more than 37% of the final price
If the product was never sold in the first place the Government would go broke
