I agree Doug ... it is a real shame that governments have clouded this issue. For a start 50% or someother % close to that of the people are not going to agree with whats being touted simply on a political basis. Then throw into the mix the peoples distrust of how public monies are managed and therefore their sceptisisms and you've a giant smokescreen that even further fogs the agenda and shifts the focus from the real issue I think.

Still I go back to my original post ... That Ive read convincing argument from both sides of this debate and so Im no closer to deciding whats the right direction to head in ... From all Ive read from both camps however, I have formed the idea that maybe the balance point for all of this is much finer than most people think.
