Who pays excessively for water?
You will. Just wait...

You've moved from "makigng them pay excessively" (present tense) to
"will pay) excessively (future tense). The two are not the same thing.


Youre right.


I know :-))

The Government has promised to make us pay through the nose
in the future, as more and more corps. abbreviation get their nose in
the through. They promised this year will see a large finacial increase
due to drought conditions, created by their not allowing for extra dams.
They created this situation...The drought was expected and is a part of
Australia. It could have been prevented...They wasted our resources on
other things. Like invading Iraq, and war.


I couldn't be bothered any more other than to comment that you need to
figure out which government you are writing about. The one which you
believe is responsible promising to make "us" pay through the nose is not
the same one invading "Iraq". It is not a one size fits all siutation.
