You can imagine my surprise when I heard that there were issues with cost blowouts on the NBN. There are now some saying it will never happen as the contractors cannot actually build any network for the price that the government is expecting from them. If it goes ahead, once again the public will have to pay for this infrastructure that 95% of Australia simply doesn't need.
I want to know why the government aren't spending 40Billion on public transport? Or Health? Perhaps those were considered too hard. I can imagine Mr. Conroy saying something like "hey lets lays some cables in the ground and get some extra votes from rural Australia - how hard can that be".
If only Australia had some real leadership in the parliament.
