long-term lease state assets - its is Privatisation !!!!!!! - State of Queensland - Australia

No matter now much they try to dress it up ' a lease or sale ' its still privatization - many thanks to the unions for showing it for what it is - one question thought, the revenue that now comes from the state owned assets to government , and is spent on schools , hospitals  and more - only means two things - "  increased taxes to replace the revenue and high electricity costs to pay the new owners and pay the new owners for the money they borrowed , to pay the state government for the assents , lease or sale , still the same !!
