I am with you guys....  I bought in for stability and 'knowing'...

I am with you guys....  I bought in for stability and 'knowing' the govt would not be so stupid to introduce things like PRICE CONTROLS.   But there you have it....  talk about price controls.  Well and truly after the horse has bolted.  The effing govt completely stuffed the entire industry over the last 5 to 10 years CAUSING the current prices.  So after govt stuffs the entire industry, the govt now says 'we will control the price'.

Ahhhhhh, just like govt in NBN.  effed provision for a crap price.

So, like you most, I have sold today at a loss.  The last thing I need is the govt telling companies I invest in, how they should invest their capital, what they should keep and what they should divest and what prices they should charge.

Just let the govt run the whole thing.  They will give us all some pink bats to wrap ourselves up in when the power is not available.

What an easy way to invest.  Just stay away from anything the govt gets its fingers on.  How are the bank shares going after the royal commission.  Govt fear there as well.  There are laws to enforce, but the govt and ASIC are so ashamed at their own criminal failures they simply turn a blind eye.

What a joke.  Why dont we just import Putin and let him run the show - since our wonderful govt has now decided to become all socialist - communist and PLAN our lives.... tell us what internet we can and cannot have and the price.... tell us what electricity we can have and how much it will cost....   I guess the commie super profits tax will appear next / again for the mining industry

all the while, the pollies are lying cheats and lining their own pockets... hell, we have Putin already.... lots of wee, self important, commie-socialist Putins trying to run the show and tell industry what to do and people what to do

Well, where are we going when the Libs become socialist and Labor will be left of that.  Goodness me.  What industry next will the govt decide to screw up.
