  Date: 01/08/2011 The biggest tax initiative since the GST? The highly regarded economist Neville Norman says yes - but try $50 to $60 not $23! In the midst of so much political argy-bargy, let's not lose sight of the inevitability of a carbon tax, says respected economist Neville Norman, as he reminds us that Julia Gillard had little choice in the matter following last year's upheavals for the Labor Party, the circumstances of her rise to leadership, and the hung parliament that she effectively heads now. Neville also has strong words about the the "shock" March quartergrowth figures. But why should we be surprised, he asks, considering the political environment, economic set-backs and natural disasters here and overseas in the previous months? Neville Norman has plenty to say about the carbon tax, the latest growth figures, what lies ahead for business, and how we should all start planning.
