Electricity Privatisation - A Record of Failure - in the state of Victoria ....Australia

https://www.facebook.com/powerprivatisation An independent report and video documentary on electricity privatisation, the economic failings and social costs. Professor John Quiggin has asked, analysed and answered the major questions about the motives and outcomes of electricity privatisation and reforms in this Report. The evidence in the report supports the conclusion that free-market electricity reforms have been ‘a spectacular failure’ and there is no fiscal or economic justification to continue the sell-off.
The accompanying video documentary examines the social and economic impact on Victoria in the 20 years since the sell-off of the State Electricity Commission.
