i386: Easier said than done. A college loan is inherently based on the premise that your earning power after college is going to be much higher than before - a college loan is by definition a loan you can't afford to pay back. It's easy here in .au - HECS makes it a very-low-risk strategy. In the US, where college fees start from $30k or more, it's very high risk. - James Polley
Anthony Albanese, my federal MP, replied to my letter about Internet censorship. It’s nothing but platitudes and a regurgitation of Labor’s policy-speak.
Network engineer Mark Newton met with his local MP Kate Ellis in Adelaide yesterday. She too had nothing but canned responses.
This is not good enough.
The same goes for “pro-family” lobbyists like the Australian Family Association’s Anh Nguyen in Online filtering recognises families’ concerns today, or the people quoted in the Courier Mail’s Web filter ‘needed’ to protect kids from porn on Friday.
Detailed, coherent critiques have been put forward addressing the technical, economic and policy flaws in clear, straightforward language. If you can’t counter those arguments with evidence and logic, not more “think of the children” hand-wringing, then we must stop wasting time and taxpayers’ money on this “filtering” folly. Now. - James Polley
