I can see how this sudden announcement would be gauling if you were
relying on that resource.
You mean Galling.


First they take the opportunity to stop building dams, then as it

Sorry I am not familiar with QLD dam building policy. What opportunity
is this? What dams is the QLD government not building?

Any that may be needed, and taking advantage of the drought we have at
times.

So do you know or not? Or do you just expect people to take your word for
this lack of dam building?

water become artificially scarce, because now you havent got any
water, they start charging for it, when it used to be free.

Water is not an infinite resource. The only way to get a sensible water
policy and cost effective water use is if it has a reasonable value. If
it seems "free" to some people (nothing is ever really free) it is
overused and used on things because the opportunity is there not because
there is a good business case for doing it that way.
Youre talking crap when we let corperations use it to drive out small
stake holders. Water is being used. If you know American history its
happening again in Australia. Water is being used to screw farmers.

So which corporation/s are driving out small stake holders? How are they
driving out small stake holders? Are these corporations acting alone? Are
these corporations public or private entities or are they quangos? Are these
corporations in cohoots with the State government or with the Federal
government. Which incidents in American history are your referring to?

Any one want to stop breathing, as youre consuming my oxygen and
breathing out CO2.
Oh yes wasn't that part of the Carbon tax they were going to put on
us all?

Are you voicing an objection to two policies here or is there a
connection between water policy and carbon tax?
You cant see this?

Perhaps you could try explaining the connection.

Are you somehow being misled regarding Climate
change, water policy and attempts to gain advantages over small land
holders?

Given that in just 2 posts you've mixed into the pot Federal political
parties, State political parties, Federal environmental policy, State
environmental policy, unexplained references to both small landholders and
to American history, I haven't got a clue what you're on about. You're
clearly ****ed off and feeling upset, but you could try harder to actually
explain what the issues are rather than just spray all over the place.
