Well everything this governement has subsidied or implemented has eventually come to bite us back in the arse. My daughter started yr7. Remember this laptop scheme at school? Well because the government had now pulled out of the fundings we are left with the bill to pay. It's a lease so the notebook costs $200 per quarter. I went to school and said what about I buy one for $500.00 and you keep yours. They said no. You have to go on with the program. Not an option. By the time she's finished yr 12 I'll have spent $7k on it. That is what I call a blatant rip off.
