FFS! Country people already have to travel huge distances compared to city types.
Lower speed limits won't make them safer. Trips will just take much longer and frustrate everyone.
Most prangs are caused by impatience, inattention, entitlement or stupidity.

Homo Sapiens emerged about 300,000 years ago.
Imagine you gave an early Sapiens $9,000. And they looked at you and said “the fuck is this?”
But anyway, you piled up $9,000 Every Single Day since the first Sapiens walked the Earth.
You still wouldn’t have a trillion dollars.

Postponed childbearing, exit from the workforce and other consequences will reduce the relative size of the economy’s productive sector, ultimately exacerbating the problem to the point of disaster.
Taking from the young, giving to the old: How our tax system is letting us down
Australians are retiring with unprecedented levels of wealth. This wealth, which is primarily held in housing, investment properties and superannuation, allows retirees to draw incomes to support their retirement.

In fact the hardest workers get FAR less

-Eliminating red-tape
Conveniently ignoring:
-Few jobs
-Profits offshored
-Tax-avoidance
-Environmental destruction
-Clean-ups WE pay for

Everyone involved in this needs to repay whatever public money was involved in full. Deloitte, the DEWR Secretary's salary for any time in commissioning it, all of you.
This must be referred IMMEDIATELY to both the Australian Public Service Commission and the NACC.
