His National Broadband Network plan compared to Kevin Rudd's will bring the nation's download speed to 20MB/s to all places including rural areas (someone correct me if I'm wrong on speed) which isn't horrible, but it will cost a lot and is still easily behind a lot of nations' download speed. It uses copper wiring to deliver internet, while KRudd's was via fibe optic and was +100MB/s
After writing this I realize there was another issue, he wanted to censor a lot of search results and websites for Australia ISPs.
He's definitely not getting a 2nd term.

it wouldn't actually have to all be in the same place, in fact for distribution it would make more sense for it not to be.

i know, i know.. and this would be true even if you spread it across many countries.. but the motherfucking benefits of having a guaranteed unlimited power supply?

you're buying into fully sustainable energy with less maintenance than other sources, increasing solar output as you go - it's not like you're not going to be using the solar panels over the years they are being built. also: there are countries are in huge amounts of debt but being kept out of bankruptcy because they're important in some way - e.g. the US http://www.usdebtclock.org/. I genuinely can't imagine anything more important
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austra lian_national_debt
and if you offer incentives to other countries to buy into a proportion of your 100% sustainable solar farm to cover some of the production?

It's all well and good to promise solving energy crisis' with solar now until in 5 years people will be complaining about the country having no money
And to break-even the costs would be incredible and you would still need other power sources for power since there just isn't a system to date that's able to store that much energy. And who would want to fund this when coal is working perfectly fine as is? Asia has huge investments into Australian coal and mining corporations
