I don't have a lack of faith in the private sector, I have a lack of faith that the project being outlined can be delivered in the way and for the money that they are saying.rubberman wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2018 5:14 pmI am sorry to see such a lack of faith in the private sector. Usually it is the raving socialists who are sceptical of private sector involvement.
In fact, I must admit things are quite ideologically topsy-turvey here. We have the Liberals favouring a huge government subsidy for solar panels, while the Labor Party is facilitating the private sector to do most of the work, including retailing, installation and generation.
Without commenting on the virtues of either scheme, the fact that the ALP is proposing a much more market based policy, and the Liberals a more interventionist policy is quite surprising.
I hand on heart have no idea how to fix the electricity crisis we have in the state (and federally), what I do know is 15 years of policy moves hasn't helped.
