  As a recent customer of Starlink, this has to be among the biggest runways in business. Only ~500k connections in Australia, apparently still >8.5m suffering through our joke of an NBN... That's just the opportunity in our little tinpot country.

  @ShaneOliverAMP A big part of the problem is that starting from the 2010's more of our spending now goes to megatech platforms that extract Australian revenue without the old local multiplier. When $100 went to Ford or Holden, a retailer or a local media company, a large portion recycled through local wages, suppliers, property, logistics and tax. Now when $100 goes to a global ad platform, streaming service or cloud provider much more can disappear offshore through IP, reseller fees and related party charges with far less local employment or supplier spend despite the use of infrastructure like NBN and roads. So government keeps importing demand and taxing workers harder to fund services while more private spending leaks offshore to low local footprint platforms. That extraction is not productive for our economy and is increasingly an issue, especially when profits are being offshored and Australian taxpayers are unfairly carrying the burden.

  @strangerous10 @AlanJMitchell_ Yep. And Canberra complaining about the privatised Telstra is like me selling someone a second-hand car and hitching about what the new owners did with it. I’m serious. And we should surely have enough computing power to know now how the sharemarket dabbling went for those “battlers” who bought Telstra shares as encouraged by the privatising PM John Howard. After taxes, accountants, inflation, fees & Telstra’s bad (or deliberate?) policy choices around the National Broadband Network, my guess would be: not that well. And speaking of the NBN, remember the smart nodding and talking heads saying we wouldn’t need this much capacity etc. Be a few archived interviews from that era that will not have aged well. The same equation repeats throughout history. 1. “This is ridiculous” 2. “It has some uses” 3. “We’ve always supported this! What are you talking about.” Progress moves by the death of generations, as much as by technology. My parents hated ATMs. Didn’t trust them. I don’t trust the thing I’m writing this on. Children now will one day look back on such antiquated things as hand-held devices and “wonder how people used something so clumsy”. Etc

  @olsod45 @BobBurn97207272 @R64862Rvan We are not America slick. That debt is all Labor's. When you announce major infra structure and I mean major! With zero funding put in place to fund it. As your arse is being shown the door. Which Labor does every time and requiring some else to find the money. Then your always going to be working from behind. We were debt free as Howard left office. Then along came Rudd with the NBN and Gillard with the NDIS. Announced with massive fanfare and zero funding. Granted Morrison and the idiot Turnbul didn't help either by throwing money at them. We are heading for a recession (we had to have) but you appear to have your head ensconced in a very dark place.

  @OzHempRocks @MarkoMatvikov 1/3 The latent, already eligible scenario Well, welcome to the world of whacky PBO estimations, eh? Let me see – so PBO are not to be trusted to estimate NBN, NDIS, Snowy 2.0, nuclear (etc) – but we trust them here? I see.... Let’s look at their stats and I’ll explain them to you for your benefit. This is how you come to quote the ‘uptake’ figure. See embedded table. So here is the 26% quoted as being ‘eligible’, or what you call uptake. But here is where that gets problematic. 1. Your optimum scenario relies on someone having $0 income. They’re not even filing an ITR! The $0 scenario does not apply to PBO modelling, as they’re not in that cohort at C, which drives D & then E. 2. Of greater relevance - of that 26%, this cohort includes any permutation of incomes for couples, the overwhelming majority of whom: a. Are eligible but earning in the same tax brackets (eg $45K and $75K, or $80K and $130K, or $200K and $200K) and hence receive no benefit at all, or b. Are in different tax brackets but are both at the lower end of the income scale (eg one at $40K the other at $60K – moderates out to $50K apiece saving $500) c. Are in different tax brackets, earning good incomes, but where the disparity is insignificant (eg one at $75K, the other at $150K – a saving of $1200) Of the ‘eligible’ pool of 26% of tax filers or 16% of the population, most of them receive $0 benefit as they ARE eligible but are both in the same tax bracket (2a). A large proportion end up with ‘something, but not material’. Before anyone jumps down my throat, consider this – the ALP’s WATO policy due to commence 2027 is $250 per person, so either; - ON does intend to continue WATO, which just further piles the burden on the tax system or - ON rescinds this, and most people (90% of income tax filers) are actually worse off. See example 2b above. They’d be no better off. So, I presume ON will inherit the (dubious) WATO and add IS (income splitting) into the mix. We just end up with a ludicrously over-engineered tax system. Punchline - we end up with between 1-3% of the population who receive a material benefit. It is probably closer to 2.5% of the voting population. Many parents will think they are eligible but end up receiving nothing. Which is the essence of populist policy. Let me be honest – the ALP WATO is fairer, simpler, and better. So, you either inherit it and over-engineer the system or discard it and wear the ire of the population. Or take my advice and engineer a far better, fit for purpose, future proofed model.
