just can't believe electricity etc prices will not rise under a for profit organisation,

Fair question, but how can Pala use the dividends from a couple of power generators and some ports to pay down $80 bloody billion dollars of debt if she isn't bleeding their capital and charging "what the market can bear" for their services?

Remember Bligh had these dividends at her disposal, plus the dividends of the cash-cow QR National plus the proceeds of the sale of QN and still blew our out debt crazily. has labor made any commitment to rein in spending? If not, how can they pay down debt. Her "labor" forecast is is $10bill in twelve years or $12 bill in ten years. Surely an $80 bill debt needs to be tackled with more urgency?

Pay the price and read The Australian where they DETAIL how labor will cost the average household $500 PA on their power bills with their policies. That was BEFORE today's announcement that they will entice another million households onto the solar gravy train. The FIT would be a bigger problem than our debt.
