the free maket was laying out fibre at NO expense to the tax payer.

that is the issue any responsible person has.
Not the 'free pidgeon shot' that the future is unknown and we might want a faster download at some stage.

If we do, and enough people do, and they will pay for it, a company will provide it and accordingly charge for it.

At NO expense to the taxpayer.

Like most Labor stooges they don't know how the private market works...

so listen you nincompoops...

if a lot of people want it and there's a buck to be made then the private sector will supply it..

if people don't want or need it then it isn't necessary..

and lets face it.. ADSL has never stopped any of your Loser Labor Stooges from printing your garbage on here... Roll Eyes

how the private market works? I'll tell you how it works, I'm on a fixed line and my internet still drops out at least a dozen times a day because Telstra doesn't give a crap. You have no choice but to use their products,

why would they spend $40B when they can not spend it, and still charge you the same? (don't say wireless, I work from home and wireless is to unreliable, in my area I have no choice but to use Telstra).

It it's the private sectors job to supply vital infrastructure, what do we need the government for?

the jobs that make money...

like what has already been said in this thread.. fibre optics was already being run out at no cost to the tax payer..

there's been new fibre optics supplied between Melbourne and Warrnambool already at a fraction of the cost Labor was doing it for and it's faster than the NBN..

all they need do now is get some retailers and contractors to plumb it in and start using it..

I don't care what you luddites say -
I am sad that a gleaming optic fiber is not connected to my premises.

I too have to put up with slow speeds - it's hard to get better than
a 360 pixel video on Youtube & sometimes my connection drops out.

Let's face it we're all paying big dollars for substandard connections even as with my ADSL2+.

So let me get this straight -

It's the private sectors role to provide vital infrastructure, and governments role to provide jobs and make money?

the NBN has thousands of connection problems already it was stated in the paper the other day..

they are taking short cuts etc much like the pink batts debacle really...

whats wrong with the internet now?

it's fast enough for anyone to do gaming, watching videos and downloading documents faster than you can read them...

I can buy on line etc already..

you can Skype and do everything you need to do already....

so whats the big whoha??

I could give two runs about the NBN... there's more important things like saving peoples lives... upgrading our hospitals etc..

if abbott speeds up the internet a bit then fine.. i'll get a few more fracks... Wink

What's a sheeple?

well well well...

like all of the intelligent forum members have been saying on here... there's not one good reason why the useless Labor government would throw away 100 BILLION dollars of Tax Payers money..

what the Liberals will do will be mostly finished in a few years... then sell if off to Private enterprise...

from there you will see them finish the job putting fibre into homes...

but only if Australians actually "want it" ...

if they don't then it won't happen until later on...

A petition is a good idea.
Perhaps if people pedged to give $100 each and enough poeple did that, there would be a fund enough for a FTTH NBN ?

I'ld consider it. I am for a fibre net, I am against the govt borrowing money to do it.

I love all those little grey 'dalek' thingos that will soon be part of every street scape. Soon there will be thousands. I wont mind if they go and string it up between telegraph poles either - anything for a superior system than that outfaded FTTH

Do you ever think that the government has to borrow money to built infrastructure doesn't matter what it is. Even State government and local council borrow money to built infrastructure.

If they never borrow money to built infrastructure what would we have.
