There are plenty of opportunities, Senator Brown and Senator Farrell, to be able to avoid that levy. The second option is to increase loans. But what has this Labor government been doing since the middle of 2009? It has been borrowing in excess of $100 million a day, seven days of every week. They have been borrowing $700 million a week. Of course, they have the great big excuse that they want to return the budget to surplus.
