I'm not one who really treasures the polls but it does seem like the fortunes of both Gillard & Labor have nose dived out of control these last two months since Abbott has gone flat out in his campaign of fear while Gillard has been hamstrung by events she has brought on herself, was not that long ago when there was strong support for an ETS in this country & why the heck she chose or was persuaded into choosing a bloody carbon tax has got me beat.
I believe that if we act sooner rather than later in putting something in place in regards to fighting man made climate change then the better it will be for this country & at least a carbon tax will be a start, in my opinion of course.
So if you think the Carbon Tax is a bit of a mistake then is it quite possible the majority of people who oppose it oppose it because they think it's a mistake rather then because Abbott told them too?
