I'm a Fan of the Markets, David.

The proposed price cuts for both gas and coal are not really attracting a lot of attention. The idea that the government can sort of set a reasonable return for the gas people into perpetuity is not very far away from full-on socialism or colonialism, David says. It's no different to the Liberal government wanting to tell AG or power station to stay open,. This is a bit of a long burst, but it does make me very unhappy philosophically, Charles.
