The Abbott Truss\u00a0Government has broken a plethora of election promises in\u00a0#Budget2014<\/a>,\u00a0resulting in\u00a0picking a fight with a whole cross section of the community.<\/strong>
\nThe people are angry and they are marching, again.\u00a0#MarchInAugust<\/a>\u00a0is\u00a0people power demanding a “Fair Go” and protesting\u00a0against government decisions that are against the national interest and the well-being\u00a0of our nation.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Abbott himself said: “I think there will be a people’s revolt against this tax”. He wants to introduce three of them: GP Tax, Debt Tax and Fuel Excise Tax.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maintain the rage.<\/strong><\/p>\n
