The pulp mill will bring about 280 jobs once it is running, at the same time probably destroying about 280 jobs in Scottsdale at Auspine if the pine is to be chipped. Sure there are lots of figures but definitely not mindless, if you took the time to do some calculations yourself you would see that the pulp mill adds up to lots of money for Gunns at the Tasmanian people’s expense. Just add it up.
54 Million in subsidies to the timber industry each year.
80 million or so to help with the pulp mill.
680 years of road repairs each year
18 cents a litre fuel subsidies.
So who pays?
