Remember when this man, who set up strategies to ensure that Australia was the only country in the world that made it through the Global Financial Crisis completely intact, and who promised a nationwide broadband network with super-fast speeds that would cost approximately 31 billion U.S. dollars, was stabbed in the proverbial back by his own political party, after which his party lost the election to a government that offered a heavily "watered down" national broadband internet network...
... and, 10 years later, the NBN Corporation working on this inferior network, had to be "bailed out" by the same government that offered the "watered down" version, to the tune of over 14 billion U.S. dollars, causing the single-worst infrastructure disaster in this nation's history, a project that has now blown out to more than 35 billion U.S. dollars while still unfinished...
... while a significant proportion of households in rural areas have to put up with approximately 5mbit connections and frequent disruptions (with a permanent latency of about 0.6 seconds because the technology that NBN Co. is utilizing for rural residents is a SATELLITE)?
Literally the best leader we have had in the 21st century.

I lived in Aussie for 20 years...your internet speeds are fucking joke....
Eli Reyes
Having said that, Kevin Rud is a chinese cock sucking faggot....fuck him.
Xavier Rogers
Reminder that this retard advocated for a big Australia and accelerated the process of fucking the local demographics
Levi Flores
We were entirely immune to the North-Atlantic banking "crisis" - and his policies ruined three generations and stripped our banking industry of the protections that had meant that we were immune - making us completely at risk of collapse in the future. Anyone who unironically thinks KRudd "saved" us from anything is financially illiterate.
Ayden Rivera
Well that's pretty much been the direction since Keating left office but it started with Whitlam....

>Hurrrrr I'm sorry that you abbos are such a bunch of losers hurrrrrr pass the petrol

Camden Howard

Austin Moore
Sorry you're a bunch of do nothing petrol sniffing cunts, here's a stimulus package

Slow as fuck on a good day and if you had a thunderstorm it just fucking died for hours at a time
Andrew Collins
Fuck off, Kevin.
Christopher Sanders
Reminder that the Libs have been running Aus for 16 of the last 22 years.
If you hate modern Australia, you know who to blame.

The NBN was the only government policy I ever cared about. Once Abbot got Turnbill to destroy it I became disillusioned with nation building. The media, especially the ABC made sure the NBN was never talked about. They even censored QANDA on multiple occasions to make sure nobody could ever talk about it. They all colluded to destroy it.

100Mbps is a joke? What speed are you getting?
Carson Barnes
Australia's historical conservative banking policies and minimum reserve holdings saved us. They had very little exposure to that ridiculous ponzi scheme collapse. Also our conveyor belt to China (metals and fossil fuels going out, bags of cash coming back) didn't even see a bump. Despite Rudd's best efforts, we pulled through unscathed.
Lol no ones getting 100Mbp. NBN cut corners and is worse than the old internet set up.
Brayden White
He gave us a fair shake of the sauce bottle.

This, unfortunately it’s true friendos
Libs are neo cons, they’ll say a bunch of shit but end of day will import another billion Chinese because it boosts the value of their real estate portfolio
