We won't pay

[NONONO]

I'm going to post this then I'l shut the fuck up.
Just getting ready for work, took the yellow arm band off the mirror, where it has sat these last few months.
It's got We wont pay written on it. I put it in the bin.
Seems to me that we gave up with the levy hike too early.
I understand the long term strategy, and I try and follow Ixion's Machiavellian thinking but it was the absolute unfairness that I believe galvanized the biker community on this issue and that unfairness was evidenced by the levy hikes. The hikes were, and I believe still are, concrete proof of the Nats desire to take us off the road and privatize ACC. The levy rises are still too high and we could have made a lot more mileage about them and in the process attacked the ACC changes.
It's not all about the money, but some of it is. The hikes allowed us to pin our banner to this.
So I will continue to protest them, and the destruction of ACC, and keep working within the union, and at work and within a political party to stop the mad rush to Americanism.
I believe we have made a strategic error in not pushing for further reductions. I think we will regret it.
But as for We wont pay, well it looks like we will, just not as much, not yet anyway...

Still working hard .. and not accepting this level of increase the call was for equality .. and we haven't got that .. there is once again a call from government for more increases next year.

Stand up and be counted ... I AM!

This really isn't even a biker thing. Its about something much broader, and that's the change to a pre-funded system, and away from the Woodhouse principles.

And yes, before ACC could be privatised it would have to be full pre-funded.

So I will continue to protest them, ...

:confused: You, like most, will continue to protest them, but we're not pushing for further reductions? :confused:
