The good thing about GST is that the economic burden of the tax isn't borne by you - it's borne by the consumer. This works because as a business, you can get 'GST credits' for materials that you buy for making a new product, or (I believe) doing a service. Consumers, not being registered for GST, cannot claim these GST credits.
