what Bracks is doing to undermine a potential national water plan is a disgrace, I am critical of Howard about many things but despite that, he has also done a lot of good and putting water under Federal control seems like a very smart thing to do, and in the national interest. The states have mismanaged water for too long and now all of a sudden they claim to have a solution??
By taking power from the states, one govt is accountable and there can be no more buck passing as we see for health, education etc.
Personally I think the states should be abolished, they just create another layer of bureaucracy and inefficiency.
