This is because of greedy power providers not so much the carbon tax.

SOB

How you figured?

Because the electricity prices have gone up every single bill since they were privatised. They will continue to do so. This carbon tax is a brilliant excuse to put them up even more. The govt released figures of how much they will actually be effected by carbon tax. Anything above that is more greed.

SOB

A large part of the problem is that under successive Labor governments in NSW, electricity infrastructure was left to decay due to neglect and is now badly in need of repairs and upgrades. These are things that will cost an enormous amount of money. Had Labor not been so self-obssessed while in office, things may be different.

your not trying to imply that ALP didn't do enough on infrastructure spending are you? need I remind you that when Howard was removed the country was approx. $100 billion behind in infrastructure spending .... glass houses and all that .... theres always the argument that they could have done more ..... but at least they did something .. Howard did sweat bugger ALL in comparison when it came to infrastructure spending...

and oft-repeated and thoroughly fraudulent claim. and power infrastructure is STATE owned - not federal. Same applies to hospitals and schools. ALL state owned and for most of the last 15 years LABOR-run.

try again.

You mean the states that were squeezed dry year after year by Howard so that Costello could stand up each budget night pimping and preening, to tell us what a great job he'd done stuffing cash up a mattress?? Maybe if Costello had actually given the states some of that cash they could have spent it on infrastructure - kinda like what is happening now.

I think you mean the states that had real INCREASES in funds every yeasr and have demonstrated a spectacular inability to manage it. yes, the states got REAL INCREASES in funding - not squeezed. PLUS 4 of them also got vastly increased mining royalties and still ran deficits. and all labor-run.

so now you want to be able to use a general term like 'infrasructure' and when your argument is beaten choose to redefine what you meant instead of what you said?

try again but this time with a define and credible argument. Quite simply, infrastructure was not run down by Howard. Quite the contrary. Road building for example had a significant increase in real terms. and most infrastructure is built by the states wher were given extra money but blew it all and ended up in even deeper debt. and ALL of them were labor run states. Sound familiar? its the labor way.

Compensation is ripped out of the economy, by Abbott, then electricity continues to rise with no respite.

What then denialists?

Abbott is happy to force up the cost of living?

Because we will rip out the carbon tax

How. If electricity prices don't go down within a month, will the neocons call an snap election.

When electricity and food keep rising, yet pensioners lose cash out of their pensions ... workers have to pay more tax and lose wage rises. Will your lot admit you support higher cost of living pressures.

Repealing Carbon Tax won't reduce the number of homosexuals either - but we all live with that fact so should you
