    RTA/RACV/RACQ etc: The ultimate nanny-state agencies?

    b) is an extremely controversial point - there is certainly no consensus on this. There are 2 major speed related issues on our roads: 1. Relative speeds of cars travelling together 2. Severity when you crash/decision time If all cars are travelling around the same speed, even if its 140kph...

    RTA/RACV/RACQ etc: The ultimate nanny-state agencies?

    I pay tax ... I own the road The people setting these limits are public servants (bureaucrats) - the few RTA engineers are busy building roads. An engineer who has built a road for 130km/h travel would set a 130km/h speed limit. Where's your evidence? Severity of crashes increasing at...

    Of course its BS... There are many freeways in NSW with a design speed of 130km/h - yet we are limited to 110kmh NB RACQ/RACV are NRMA equivalents - i.e. organisations which started as royal automobile clubs, set up to campaign for better roads and the rights of motorists... get your facts right

    Homosexuality in Australia

    Real catholics don't take offence to anything - they simply pity and forgive people who say/do stupid/'wrong' things --- I don't even see why this is a valid argument topic... if I wanna screw a guy then what does it have to do with anyone else. It's like people imply that gay relationships...

    Re: Strong and effective climate change policy, that doesn't involve a great, big new The price of coal electricity will be higher by the amount of the tax. But you just said in an earlier post that all carbon tax paid will be met with equal reductions in income tax. So in reality, coal...

    Nearly 20% of university students don't last full year

    Its good if people are dropping out... it means a university education is not devalued. The alternative would be making the course easy, so everyone gets the degree. But aside from some nice political stats, what would be the point of that??

    Re: Strong and effective climate change policy, that doesn't involve a great, big new I'm starting to question this ETS thing as well... I can understand the theory, and think its aim of "internalising the externality" is admirable, however: The major contributors to greenhouse gases are...

    2 women came into my cafe; 1 ordered a coffee and the other asked for some boiling water. Then when she thought we weren't looking, she took an instant coffee sachet from her bag and made some. Then, she came up and asked for a small jug of milk.
