Australians no longer seem willing to be suckered by “cash splashes” and white elephants such as the NBN, knowing that the explosion in government debt from $53 billion in 2007 to $533 billion today to underwrite this largesse has to be repaid. And the most likely culprits are higher taxes and inferior services.
