  @Telstra Your customer service team are disgusting. They mixed up NBN and Optimcomm and not one person answered a single question I asked. Absolutely disgusting. I want to raise a formal complaint.

  I spent nearly an hour on the phone to @VodafoneAU and while the consultant was really nice, I wasn’t asked to do anything that I hadn’t already thought about and done myself in relation to the network outage . I had another brief outage about 90 minutes ago, and the interesting thing from this phone conversation with Vodafone was that this outage today affected every network, which is absolutely and categorically untrue . Did the consultant really think I couldn’t find who was affected or knew about MVNOs? This type of stuff might work on lay people, but it doesn’t work on me. If you’re not being ruthlessly gouged by @telstra, you’re being told BS from TPG’s Vodafone Australia. I do not expect 100% fault-free internet or Voice services, that’s just ridiculous. But I do expect timely information on outages, no evasions, and finally a proper explanation as to what went wrong because the idea of a power fault in this day and age of priority communications seems laughable. @acmadotgov

  The insult is that Telstra is also upping my plan cost by $10 a month so they are simultaneously telling me I'm a risk, but also to go **** myself and pay it anyway.

  I've been letting @Telstra "augement" their💩network in the south west of Western 🇦🇺. They, Telstra, use my farm @Starlink for WiFi calling and the same on the road with Starlink Mini in my MYL. Perth-Denmark or Denmark-Albany is difficult to maintain a phone call link on mobile. Telstra should be paying me.

  @mynameiskiiiid @TheKouk Structural deficit? Mate, let's get this straight.Australia's structural budget issues blew out post-GFC and especially under recent big-spending governments — not from Howard paying down $96b in inherited debt while running surpluses. Howard left the budget in strong shape with low debt and a Future Fund seeded. Today's deficits (still projected around 1% of GDP with net debt heading to ~20%+) come from exploding recurrent spending: NDIS, aged care, welfare, and public sector bloat — not a lack of 'productivity policy' from the 90s/00s. Howard-era asset sales (Telstra etc.) shifted assets to private hands where they often delivered better efficiency and innovation — exactly what boosts productivity. Privatisation and microeconomic reforms in the 80s-90s drove Australia's strong productivity surge in the late 90s/early 00s. Blaming today's slump on "record low infrastructure spending" 25-30 years ago is the real stretch. Recent productivity stagnation (labour productivity near flat since ~2016-17, weakest in decades) has clear modern drivers:Services shift — healthcare, education, public admin (non-market sectors) now dominate and have abysmal productivity growth. Faster broadband, transport, and training matter — but governments have poured billions into infrastructure since then (and states still do). The constraint isn't some 1990s "under-spend"; it's getting value for money, avoiding waste, and prioritising high-return projects over recurrent blowouts. Private sector dynamism, competition, and sensible tax settings deliver productivity far more reliably than more government "facilitation" funded by structural deficits. You know what actually restricts productivity policy? Promising endless spending while ignoring incentives, efficiency, and evidence. Structural deficits today crowd out future options through higher interest and taxes — not the other way around." This keeps it punchy, factual, and directly dismantles the causal link while flipping the deficit argument.

  @RizviAbul Well given Telstra and CBA both have an extraordinary number of retail shareholders either , individuals, trusts or superannuation funds numbering in the hundreds of thousands if not millions , many Australians would be aware of the CGT and franking credits but there was never any need for the vast majority to worry about a tax return given not having to declare dividends under a certain amount and the easy calcUlation with the CGT discount .... Now it’s a lot more complicated and non compliance will come with threats so please don’t be so dismissive when for some it is a big deal
