Feed-in tariff should fall according to the ICRC

Well, I never supported the feed in tariff as it appears to me to be an ideological product of a whole lot of unhinged greens dabbling in economics. As it stands, the costs associated with installing such a system favour only the well off – and those who have an installations site that will accept the panels. In my case, We have a flat roof and were going to put in both solar power and water. The decision was not motivated by the feed in tariffs or the rebates – our decision was motivated by wanting to reduce our costs and our reliance on anything from those bloodsucking leeches ACTEWAGL.
Anyway, we have several large trees near our property. While they do not block the afternoon sun, they do produce enormous amounts of litter – I am up on the roof one weekend in three cleaning it. They have also caused quite a bot of damage to my home over the years. I can’t have them removed because they are “significant”, according to a law brought in by the Greens. So, this is how doctrinaire the Greens are: we are not permitted remove two trees, which are dangerous – one dropped a branch that missed my son by about 0.5m – because of their “Tree Law” and I am unwilling to put in Solar power and water – because I do not want to spend my weekends up on the roof ensuring the collectors are not fouls by the refuse from these trees. I am, and I do not think this is not unreasonable, entitled to a lite and do not live to service the needs of a couple of trees. Apparently the Greens think otherwise, like all good eco-totalitarians. The Green’s have defeated their own policies. So we continue to emit tonnes of carbon (which does not bother me anyway.)

The ICRC report is now online.

Oh how I cannot wait for July 1 to roll around!

Anyway, I shall divert all your attention back to last years media release from Minister Corbell in relation to the previous Feed-In Tariff change:
http://www.chiefminister.act.gov.au/media.php?v=9375

Particularly this part:

“”I have decided to fix the premium price for the period of two years for new installations to maintain investor confidence. “

So will he stand his ground in the face of the ICRC report? Or will he whimper out and change?

Like!!!!!
