In 1986 my V8 cost $342.00 a year to register,now my current 6 cylinder costs $680.00-and a V8 $980.00,Ten years ago the rates were $610.00 per year now they're $1400.00,there has been nowhere near these sorts of increases at the supermarket.As of 1999 theres a ten percent goods and services tax on EVERYTHING in Australia yet the tax scales haven't changed.Indirect taxes are the golden goose and if they do the mathematics that you can charge $20.00 and still raise more revenue,perhaps even with fewer consumers which is a possible,it'll one day happen.

Can't you roll your own? I roll ours and turn out a nice carton for under $8.00.
