"You can't back up your reply with substance" Well I did before, told you that the revenues are to fund the debt. Then I told you the chapter number to read to see the error in your ways. Yet you then accuse Kippa of not having any idea and say again that the NBN will sell infrastructure to fund the rest up to 43 Billion. If you like, read the Executive Summary on the first page, it's stated there too. How many times do you want me to say it?
"clearly there is not going to be an 80% uptake, the percentage figure plucked out of the air by labor themselves as the takeup required to break even" The deal with Telstra ensures there will be more than 80% uptake unless 20% of the population don't have internet or a fixed phone line. Given the deal with TLS the NBN can break even at under 70%.
