Moving the goalposts.
- nandomrumber 5mo agoWell, has it been implemented? I found this https://www.premier.vic.gov.au/three-hours-free-power-every-day https://www.premier.vic.gov.au/three-hours-free-power-every-... Which claims: This could save families up to $300 per year off their energy bills, and up to $1,070 if they have solar panels and batteries. Victoria’s Midday Power Saver offer will be available from 1 October 2026. Oh look, you may save more if you already have solar and batteries. Yet another wealth transfer from the have-nots to the haves. Typical. If you’re poor you could save up to less than a dollar a day.
- the_why_of_y 5mo agoBecause it saves the have-nots 300 dollars a year, it's a transfer from the poor? Thank you for explaining, that was not obvious to me.
