Draconian NEW regulations

Draconian NEW regulations

My share to the dogs

From the ABC and GUSNEWS

Federal Communications Minister Helen Coonan is confident the degree of regulation binding Telstra will be "just right" after the Government sells its share of the telco.
Telstra has described the new rules as "draconian" and warns they will affect the company's growth.
S'CUSE ME... THE GOVERNMENT DOESN'T OWN TELSTRA. WE, THE PEOPLE OF AUSTRALIA DO. WE'VE OVERPAID USELESS LARGE AMOUNTS FOR MANY YEARS ON LINE RENTALS AND RECEIVERS THAT WE'D DICED IN THE BINS OF OBSOLESCENCE WHEN WE COULD BUY BETTER STUFF BUT WE STILL PAID THE RENTALS! WE OWN TELSTRA!

Senator Coonan argues the level of regulation should not affect the company's share price.
READ THE SMALL PRINT OF DWINDLING VALUES... REMEMBER THE RUSSIAN RAILWAYS...

"What I've come up with in between is something that's been developed with Telstra, to suit Telstra's business model,"..." that should not have a huge financial impact on Telstra but should have immeasurable benefits to the competitive environment."
SURVIVING IN A STRAIGHT JACKET, LOCKED IN A COFFIN UNDER 30 FEET OF WATER?
OR A DINOSAUR IN CHAINS BEING ATTACKED BY JACK RUSSELS?
I DON'T WANT TO WATCH...

GusNews:

SINCE I PRESENTLY OWN MY PUBLIC SHARE OF TELSTRA (HELD IN TRUST BY THE GOVERNMENT) I REQUEST THE GOVERNMENT DO NOT SELL MY SHARE (FOR WHICH I WON'T GET A BRASS RAZOO SINCE THE GOVERNMENT IS DECIDEDLY WAGING USELESS WARS TO WHICH I AM TOTALLY OPPOSED) BUT HANG ON TO IT FOR PERPETUITY ON MY BEHALF... ALL THOSE WHO WISH TO DO THE SAME PLEASE DO SO AND MAKE YOU REQUEST PUBLIC.
