When you do the tour they give the spiel on as soon as they tap open one of their vats they have a liability of so many million dollars in tax. That's before it's even bottled let alone sold.

Henz Tampon inserted, Auto Acquired, next purchase a new handbag Donating Members 9,946 Member For: 16y 9m 28d Gender: Male Location: Vic Posted 18/03/13 08:40 AM Share Posted 18/03/13 08:40 AM My thinking. Americans pay no tax on there cars, not sure about parts. We pay out the ass for labour compared to around the world. Unskilled factory worker wants to work 8 hours max and make 60k+ a year. And America orders 10000 porches, Australia orders 1000. We get stung with import taxes, luxury tax at a whopping 33%, bang 10% on the total for GST. We're fleeced by our government!

Didn't see any unskilled jobs go for 60k. Applied for a few store manger positions . Lucky to find one that pays 50k. The best I found was 55k plus a car.

senna_T Forged Member Lifetime Members 15,818 Member For: 17y 11m 10d Gender: Male Location: SW Sydney Posted 19/03/13 01:27 AM Share Posted 19/03/13 01:27 AM Tax is definitely a big thing, however I think it really has a lot to do with Volume - I know that a customer of mine will pay less for individual units if they buy in bulk compared to buying one unit every now and again. There is also the commitment to buying a certain amount of product which will improve a discount from the manufacturer. If you say to the manufacturer that you will buy 1 pallet of product they will give you a good price however if you say you will buy 1 pallet of their product every week for the next 5 years they will give you an excellent deal to secure the business and guarantee cash flow.
