Default Re: Petrol Price crisis......

$2/L for 91 at the moment locally, diesel still around the $2.30/L mark.

Also you're all kicking in $450M to Rio Tino as compensation for the coal price cap:

They only made $29B profit this year so they're a little short of coin so we better kick some up to them.

WA taxpayers also kicking in to one of their foreign owned mines too:

WA taxpayers funding Indian owned mine to keep it going to feed a power station so you can buy power from it I guess.

Also WA is looking at importing coal from NSW to keep its coal plants going?

How does a country so resource rich like Australia end up in this situation
