To some extent it has to be partisan, because the NBN is the policy of a political party, and the other party opposes it (although far less than they used to). Therefore a debate on the two policies must be somewhat partisan. The NBN is a typical Labor policy (ie Govt build it for everyone). The coalition's policy used to be typical Coalition (ie leave it to the market), although now it's basically a cheaper version of a Labor policy (ie the Govt is still building it for everyone).
That said, the discussion has moved off on a tangent, mainly because I'm amusedly perplexed by Caliope's notion that union political donations are examples of self-serving corruption, but business political donations are entirely selfless.
However, point taken and I'll refrain from future posts on that topic unless they directly relate to the NBN.Nobody would be happy about losing a puppy for a kitten. Everyone knows dogs are better than cats.
