Sky News host Jaimee Rogers says Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will learn a hard lesson after his attempt to engineer markets through the tax system. “Governments should always be careful when they try to engineer markets through the tax system,” Ms Rogers said. “You can legislate a tax, you can change the rules, but you can't legislate human behaviour. “This is a lesson that all governments learn eventually, but for Albo, he'll have to learn it the hard way.”
