Wool tax debate and treasury withdrawal option proposal
The document argues for a wool industry levy or tax as a remedy to price pressures, suggesting woolgrowers deposit current earnings with the Treasury with a repayable option over years. It contends tax-based handling could avoid currency appreciation harms and reduce sectoral bias, while warning funds might not be used as intended and military-era insurance funds show misallocation risks. Strong entities include woolgrowers, Treasury, and references to currency policy and war damage insurance, with a focus on Australia-like context.
