I have just received my electricity bill.
It has gone from two different rates to three different rates.
The old one; 20.6 cents first 1151 kwh
29.1 cents reaminder kwh

The new one 24.4 cents first 274 Kwh
25.5 cents 2nd 274 Kwh
34.3 cents remainder kwh.

My bill has doubled over the last few years, but don't worry as the
world peak coal comes into play you will pay a lot more.

No indication of how much is CO2 tax.

I think many miss the point on the tax, the real problem is not the
compensation, that does not matter it is the extra cost imposed on the
community at large that is the problem.

My pleasure, bonmot : )

Mr Wiggles (BM), thinks that electricity consumers are polluters. Using small words. Polluters emit CO2 (such as generators). Electricity consumers do not. My young kids have grasped this concept for which you appear not to have the Intellectual horsepower. Unfortunately the deeper your ignorance, the more you flap your gums.

Similarly, you also appear to be insufficiently literate to understand that pointing out the lack of compensation does not constitute a call for compensation. I am actually calling for the need for the compensation to go, and to scrap the world's greatest carbon tax, that Juliar, Swan the liar and the deceit of Labor inflicted on this country.

Your cry of "Let us not be silenced!" is actually the point of the thread against the censorship Labor is trying to introduce.

flip-flop flim-flam wiggle-waggle

Indeed, big energy users are (e.g. smelters and blast furnaces).

I guess you are not one of the big 500/1000 eh?

So wiggle-waggle, you are ok for 'Abbott the Liar' to compensate big-money polluters and take it away from the the most vulnerable in society. Yep, typical big-end-of-town hoop-lah.

Oh, I have it on good authority that embarking on gratuitous ad hom about my intellectual capacity is an indication you are desperate, a very desperate shadow of a minister. Again, no surprises there.

So Mr Wiggles, still illiterate? again I am not calling for compensation.

" you are ok for Abbott to compensate big-money polluters and take it away from the the most vulnerable in society. Yep, typical big-end-of-town hoop-lah"

No, That is what Juliar, Swan the liar, and Labor are doing, busy bailing out companies (based on union membership?) at tax payer's expense. With no carbon tax there is no injury inflicted and no need to compensate.
