Tips for Wednesday, July 24 The activists, the Greens, the unions and Labor are destroying our current and our future living standards. Every time you get an electricity bill, just remember it's costly becuase we're paying through the nose to subsidise inefficient and costly "green" energy and we're paying extra due to Labor's carbon dioxide tax and in Victoria we've been paying for smart meters for over 12 months - whether you have one installed or not. And with no investments in new safe, efficient coal powered electricity plants, despite an increasing population, it's only going to get worse. With less than 1.5% of global CO2 emissions, and an abundance of the cheapest form of energy, Australians should have the lowest electricity prices going in the developed world. Labor, Greens and their collective activists and the unions have managed to wipe out Australia's main competitive advantage in just six years.
