There's only so much you can squeeze out from sales VAT, imports, corporate and biz revenues until you tap the RE sector via a real city/state property tax scheme which guarantees public services and maintenance of infrastructure.
Another aspect is that 24 hour circuits will be added at a faster pace, since a new load of smart and prepaid meters is due to arrive soon.
No need for projects. The elections are over, no votes to buy.
Those new roads will be turning to crap the coming 1-2 years.
It's funny: Mm CB just left. And I told her that there won't be any new Big Projects until 2015. Right before the next elections.
So how much is the new property tax going to be and at what level of property value will it kick in?
Will they also be importing some smart people to fix the electricity problem? Smart meters won't be enough. As I said before, they were destroyed previously and will be destroyed again. The announcement should be that the government is getting out of the electricity distribution business since it has done such a wonderful job managing it. You know, like the great idea they now have of letting a business collect tolls and maintain the highways?
There's no set values as of yet... Will let you know when that time comes here!
As far as people destroying the meters? Guess what? For them to get the power on again they had to pay for the replacement meters in advanced! The ones that didn't and continued to patch onto the cables got a nasty burn when they got arrested! Guess the media didn't find that as amusing as them breaking the meters and protesting before, to have an article for their prints?
The great idea of having private biz collect tools and maintain highways? Done all over the EU and on this side of the pond too! Nothing new about that! And it works!
You did not see my point about the electricity system. My point about the "great idea you acknowledge for a private company collecting the money and maintaining the toll roads and it works" is why is this not done with the electricity system? Privatize the collection of payments for electricity as well. With the government still involved, they will fail at enforcing the laws against energy theft.
Because at present the gov is the second largest sector that consumes the electrical services and the largest overdue client as well.
It would be lights out for them the next day if they did so...
Check your itemized electrical bill to understand it...
Then the current failure mode will continue on with history just repeating itself.

With the price of lead it should not take much to come up with a battery recycling plan. If that is the stopping point of progress, it sounds like a lame excuse to me.
