first lets get rid of Gillards crazy carbon tax. Once it is gone then we can work on gett?ng rid of abbott's direct action plan.

And just so you can understand. Abbott's plan is funded out of budget revenues. For every dollar they spend on direct action initiatives they spend a dollar less on other programs. The net effect is that tax payers don't pay any more tax. Existing taxes are just spent differently.
