The world according to Matt.

Onya Matt. Keeping the bastards dis-honest.

You know the electricity market is stuffed. In simple English; “Rooted”. Whenever there’s peak demand the electricity companies, which are private monopolies charge the user squillions. The industries, (those that remain in Australia) are paying through the nose, and the government says. “ fair market” and walks away from its responsibilities.

This is how a free market economy works……… in Burundi…. this is a how a free market works in …….. Bongo Congo.

Elon Musk, Young, dynamic, intelligent! We don’t like troublemakers like that in Australia.

But this is not how a socially progressive nation, (we’re joking) should treat its tax paying public. But then, if your PM is a Merchant Banker and you aint realised he got to the top by selling off assets we owned to a couple of kleptocrats, you’ve been dreaming. But Adelaide’s power woes are not a dream. The place had a melt down, lines went down and before you could say ‘Adani’, lumps of coal were being hauled around parliament. How has it come to this?

Well that’s simple.You, Public, have been asleep at the wheel. You’ve been happy to see the perks of privatisation, new logos, nice adverts and another range of well paid middle managers, who do nothing but take home HUGE salaries. And now you’ve realised, “ Hey, I can’t afford to pitch a tent in a backyard at Sunbury, and my kids cant afford a job let alone an education”!!, You’re beginning to wonder; “Hey, this aint what its all cracked up to be,”! And you’re right! This is the ‘ka-ching’ moment, when taking it up the choof, results in an involuntary response. A mind into action function. And you think: ‘How can I stop being screwed, bludgeoned and shat-on by rent seeking private enterprises”?

Well you can do two things. You can do what Joe Hockey did, close the car industry and take a cushy job in Washington. Or, you can question the whole privatisation experiment. It is an experiment. And it proves we haven’t learnt a thing from the East India Company. They’ll own you mate, pure and simple. But South Australia has seen through the bullshit, and kind Mr Musk has offered an elegant solution. And then all of sudden there’s a plethora of elegant solutions, and they’re a bit like the one faced by the Victorian Government on public transport. Anyway you stack the figures, re-nationalising makes good sense.

Got to the stage Mr Musk even had a chat with Malcolm Turnaround, and there’s momentum from the public, who don’t like being rogered all the time, who are on side. And from all accounts the conversation was much more spirited than the one Malcolm took from Donald, and there’s HOPE.

‘Nup’! according to Matt Canavan.

Like Turn-around he’s got some Coaly mates. The conversation never really happened. It was of no significance. Hardly a conversation. More a chance encounter,

Don’t worry, the illusion was brief. We aint a progressive society. We are a subsidiary office of a couple of global enterprises. And they have branch offices in Burrundi, Bongo Congo and Australia.
