Sales tax is income elastic; because of this fact, consumers have a higher tax incidence and carry the burden. From this, it has been evidenced that the tax burden is vertically unequitable and can be seen as unfair to the less fortunate. Sales tax is paid by retailers, which is dependent upon their sales revenue. However, since the demand of consumers is inelastic and can vary based on market and economic conditions, this burden is felt more by lower income individuals and families.

As patriotic Australians we pride ourselves to be a nation that accepts and respects the beliefs of all cultures, but on this historical day majority of Australians tend to forget the true meaning behind the celebration. If you ask today’s society, what they did this Australia day mass numbers would respond with “binged on alcohol” and “indulged in a barbecue.” Consequently, this day cannot be called a national celebration when some of our fellow Australians are grieving while others are out celebrating an occasion they know little about. Giving due regard to the indigenous people and their mostly negative perspective on this issue should be a priority.
