OH Mr Australia post that was a nice try to change gears but im a little bit more clued on , It was ORIGINALLY run and funded buy the government for the people and was suppose to deliver premium service for the best possible cost out come. It was changed I think in the 80s so that the government could not only sherk there responsibility to the people finacially but to not only save all what was originally used to help fund Aust Post but to also make it a money spinner and maximise revenue collection. So from a government run facility for the people paid for with the peoples taxes to not using any tax funds and massive yearly profits to boot after all the costs also were and are paid to run said Aust Post opperations.
So we the tax payers still get charged taxes for said utilities etc even though there fully funded via public funds anyway.
Not a good look now is it.

OH and Mrs or Miss Cricket yes thats right any money and that would be hundreds of millions not just any money is extracted via inflated fee,s.
That once were never charged for are now not only saving the gov millions in running costs of said service AP but generating a nice little money spinner taken from yours mine and everyone elses pockets this means millions will not be spent in the community and allowed to flow but pulled of the streets in to GENRAL REVENUE streams and used for what ever the pollies fill fit to spend it on. And a fair wack finds its way to them.
Now we already pay income tax GST inflated commodities and you want to play the community fiddle for AP. Are you out of your mind or just blind. Those millions and many other billions are needed to flow threw the community not to governemnt coffers they already take more than ther fair share but to store owners who pay employees and then who feed children who then grow up to do the same and all the time they would still be collecting either income taxes or GST %10 while left in circulation,not just to go in some snout snorting trough for some pig to gobble up on rubbish like $5 all you can eat gormey breakfasts or a lovely people paid holiday. Think it dont happen open your eyes and see whats really going on follow the money trail you will be amazed how they fool you.
There is no need for government to make profit it extracts taxes to do what is need for the community worse thing ever was to allow gov to run as a PROFIT organisasion they now do not know when enough is enough . They have now dug a hole that will be very difficult to get out of if at all.

bring back the good 'ol days eh?
Where the post was delivered by horse and cart by men in stockings and satin and they had to ride their trustee steeds across barren sunburned deserts without even a drop of water to quench their thirst....
Those were the good ol' days. eh?
When men were men and the government was honest....
