I like the sentiment but just want to point out something about how GST works. GST is a consumer tax, so for this:
The cinima is already buying popcorn GST free. Only the end consumer pays GST.
A better example might be a cafe that sells raw apples or bananas, but everything else is "processed" so they would have to do a software update for the sake of one item in the store that not that many people buy.
