@DrewPavlou $600bn might get you two reactors, and take 30 years. Your numbers don't pass the sniff test at all. Just recycling Dutton's failed climate change denial.

Australia spent approximately $680 billion on social security and welfare over the past five years. I propose that we instead spend $600 billion to build 30 publicly owned nuclear reactors - capital costs should be fully socialised by the government in the manner of Gaullist France’s nuclear program. This way you would cut the wholesale energy retail price by 60-70%, completely revitalising the manufacturing sector. Right now manufacturing is at a record low share of our GDP (5% - 130 billion). Partial re-industrialisation back toward 10–12% of GDP from 5% would add $130–180 billion in annual economic output. Manufacturing has one of the highest economic multipliers of any sector, typically 1.5–2x, because factories buy inputs, employ workers who spend locally, and create supply chains. A reasonable multiplier puts the total economic impact closer to $270–360 billion in annual GDP uplift. This creates an additional 100 billion in tax revenue each year. So it would pay for itself in under 10 years. To do this you need to create a sovereign nuclear authority with its own balance sheet, borrowing capacity, and statutory insulation from political interference. France did this with their EDF, making it structurally independent from annual budget cycles. It actually works

@theweekafternxt Funny everything was fine until the senile genius attacked Iran because he works for Israel instead of the American people

Labor now realising wind mills and solar panels can’t power ships, trains, trucks and aeroplanes. They spent years attacking fossil fuels when Australia largely depends on petrol and gas, will this corrupt inept government ever wake up? Now we’re looking at economic collapse!

@QBCCIntegrity 3. Horseshit

CONTROVERSIAL OPINION: 1) You can fuel your car for 5 years at $4/Litre for the cost of a cheap EV 2) EV inventories across the country have sold out this week. 3) Our power grid has ZERO CHANCE of keeping the vehicles charged and the lights on. This is a forced transition

@thedaywar90 Yes. Your president is a retard.

Do you support Newsom continuing to insult Trump even though he is insulting the President of the United States? Yes-Or-No

@ellymelly Anthony Albanese isn't importing anybody. And skilled workers come in to do jobs Australians are now too lazy to do.

Is it fair that Aussie kids spend a fortune on university degrees only for Anthony Albanese to import foreign workers with sub-par qualifications to replace them? In other words, our kids are conned into a lifetime of debt for jobs that were given away by the government - leaving them on min. wage with no assets, no home, and no future? Then they use that debt as leverage against them during the election to cling onto power. Labor BETRAYED young Australians.

@StandUpForTrmp 0% How many times are you going to post this?

How much do you still trust this team?

@JC47053522 @Michael94858047 He wanted to make oil prices jump up to spike share prices. Standard oligarchy

@Michael94858047 The retard is Trump . What did he think was going to happen when he bombed Iran ? And now he has got the shits that other countries don't want to enter a war they are ill prepared for . If a country with no navy can sink the Black Sea fleet , the game has changed !

ALBANESE IS SO UP HIMSELF HE THINKS TRUMP SHOULD HAVE CONSULTED HIM BEFORE HE STARTED THE IRAN WAR! ALBANESES is a Fucking retard

@ellymelly The voting record of your right wing friends betrays the lack of truth in this statement

Seriously - the left will protect absolutely everyone except for young Aussie workers. They don't want to give our kids a chance.

@SaiKate108 I think all these bot accounts need to disclose who this is "written and authorised by"

National security and fuel security go hand in hand! Barnaby Joyce with a simple solution to achieve this - ‘ get rid of the Climate Change Department’ Cut the green tape and open up new refineries. Now that’s a policy !!

@SaiKate108 "fall over drunk during the day"

@odo_of_bayeux @Ausbobsmit @AngusTaylorMP Fuck nice cherry picking. Try being truthful and go back to about 1950.

@mortbrad @Ausbobsmit @AngusTaylorMP

I'm out of diesel. All the farmers are out of diesel. This is it. We're done for. Albanese and Bowen are directly to blame. This is serious. I promise you. All other countries have diesel, and it averages $1.80 per litre in most countries in the Asia Pacific. But not Australia. Albanese is up to no good. This is crippling.

@HDealla @theoztrucker What a pointless and unrelated rant.

Yer, rich people get their stuff subsidised by those who can’t buy a home. What do generators run on? The rich get richer whilst intentionally making the poor poorer. Seems fair. Can’t see why some poor people are making sure they have fuel to get to work so their kids don’t starve whilst listening to rich people whinge about them.

These pricks with EV's are as bad as fucking vegans. Seriously, enjoy your little victory now. Don't whinge to us when the thing has fuck all resale in ten years because of the battery just shut the fuck up!

@HDealla @theoztrucker Ah so a massive generator can charge an EV easily then as some do across the Nullarbor, also people have big solar and batteries now.

Servo has a massive generator. I have a massive fuel powered generator and Starlink. I was fine. I’m also a prepper and posted on Jan 1st that this was coming and we would see $4.80/L in April-June. I filled my Jerry cans three months ago when it was cheap and available - 115l x petrol, 5l x 2 stroke, 20l x diesel and all 4 mowers are full along with both hedge trimmers, 2 chainsaws and the 11l tank on my generator.

@mark16pg Haha the bot army posts are hilarious

Very soon, One Nation will poll on top of Labor . Why just 3 of their many great policies. Close down Climate Change department. Slash immigration & select who is coming here. Defund the ABC make it a prescription only network.

@HDealla @theoztrucker Can't pump fuel either when power is out

Like the one that took out power on my rainforest covered mountain for 2 wks until piles were replaced and new lines were put in them. Not even phone towers worked. No EV’s as they can’t get solar panels because there’s too many trees. It’s a mountain plateau nestled in amongst numerous different sections of National Park. It was hilarious.

@MaximilPlan3t @theoztrucker The only morons drag 2 engines around. If you are going to sound off about charging maybe know what you are on about. I can put 400km range into my car in 12 minutes or just about how long it takes to get a take away coffee and have a piss.

@theoztrucker Hybrid. Petrol motor pushes the electric motor. Storage battery is very small, no going to cafes' for an hour to charge up your car like a moron.

@HDealla @theoztrucker What like the last one in QLD where people powered their entire house for 3 days from an EV like the one I drive? And it only used 3% battery.

@theoztrucker All good - the next big storm and week long power outage will shut them down again.

@Epchud245343 @theoztrucker And it's proven this claim is horseshit

@theoztrucker new battery is HALF the price of a new engine but you knew that right? right?

@jimmy140378 @theoztrucker @WhosFibbing I will take things that never happened, Alex

@theoztrucker @WhosFibbing Another fun fact , Bowen went to Ampol to do the installation of these “charge” stations , their engineer told them they can’t possible make this feasible because the grid is totally incapable of charging the numbers Bowen wants !! It’s a complete joke!!

@theoztrucker @aaronsmith Nor is anybody going to do that for a Triton or a Ranger

@aaronsmith I can guarantee you no one is going to rip a tarp off a Tesla in 40 years and go wow how cool lets restore it......
