Australia: Labor’s CO2 TAX On EVERYTHING explained, CO2 Tax for Dummies

CO2 Tax for Dummies

Let's put this into a bit of perspective for laymen!  Graphic Here

ETS is another tax. It is equal to putting up the GST to 12.5% which would be unacceptable and produce an outcry.

Read the following analogy and you will realize the insignificance of carbon dioxide as a weather controller.

Pass on to all in your address book including politicians and may be they will listen to their constituents, rather than vested interests which stand to gain by the ETS.

Here's a practical way to understand Julia Gillard Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme.

Imagine 1 kilometer of atmosphere and we want to get rid of the carbon pollution in it created by human activity.  Let's go for a walk along it.

The first 770 meters are Nitrogen.

The next 210 meters are Oxygen.

That's 980 meters of the 1 kilometer.  20 meters to go.

The next 10 meters are water vapour.  10 meters left.

9 meters are argon.   Just 1 more meter.

A few gases make up the first bit of that last meter.

The last 38 centimeters of the kilometer - that's carbon dioxide.  A bit over one foot.

97% of that is produced by Mother Nature.  It’s natural.

Out of our journey of one kilometer, there are just 12 millimeters left.  Just over a centimeter - about half an inch.

That’s the amount of carbon dioxide that global human activity puts into the atmosphere.

And of those 12 millimeters Australia puts in .18 of a millimeter.

Less than the thickness of a hair.  Out of a kilometer!

As a hair is to a kilometer - so is Australia 's contribution to what Julia Gillard calls Carbon Pollution.

Imagine Brisbane 's new Gateway Bridge , ready to be opened by Julia Gillard. It's been polished, painted and scrubbed by an army of workers till its 1 kilometer length is surgically clean. Except that Julia Gillard says we have a huge problem, the bridge is polluted - there's a human hair on the roadway. We'd laugh ourselves silly.

There are plenty of real pollution problems to worry about.

It's hard to imagine that Australia 's contribution to carbon dioxide in the world's atmosphere is one of the more pressing ones.  And I can't believe that a new tax on everything is the only way to blow that pesky hair away.

Pass this on quickly while the ETS is being debated in Federal Parliament.

Stop Gillard’s Carbon Tax, CO2 is essential for LIFE .

 

Media

Media Release

Menzies House, an independent grassroots website for centre right political activists, today announced the launch of 300_gillard-300x340http://www.StopGillardsCarbonTax.com, an online petition and information resource opposing the recent proposal to implement a carbon tax as a transition to an Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS).

If enacted, it is estimated that this tax hike will cost the average Australian household a staggering extra $300 a year in electricity bills, as with further sharp increases in the costs of goods and services.

“This proposal is an economically damaging grab for cash by a desperate government and will lead to the very same ETS rejected by the Australian people.” said Timothy Andrews, Managing Editor of Menzies House.“It will hurt businesses, hurt families, and seriously harm the Australian economy – at a time Australian Families can least afford it. With recent increases in the cost of living already hitting Australian households, this is a tax hike Australia just can not afford.

The Editor-in-Chief of Menzies House, John Humphreys, has previously written about revenue-neutral carbon tax, but opposes the current proposal

“A moderate carbon tax, with offsetting tax cuts, would be the least harmful policy for combating climate change” said Mr. Humphreys. “However, the current policy fails because it does not provide the offsetting tax cuts, and so it will increase the size of government and hurt the economy. It is also worrying that the government seems intent on switching to an emissions trading system, which is an unnecessarily complicated and inefficient response to climate change."                                                 Madame Gillard

Labor comes clean with contempt for Australian Military



Former Labor Party Leader, Mark Latham, comes clean with the Australian public regarding his and Labor's contempt for Australia's Military forces.
The Australian Labor Party (ALP)and its Australian Council of Trade Unions (ACTU)bankers and financiers have a long tradition of hatred for and undermining of Australia's military forces during WW2, however this hatred and contempt was most publicly displayed  during the Vietnam War during which the ALP & ACTU financially supported the Communist North Vietnamese army, along with withholding weapons and supplies from Australian troops via the ACTU'S Maritime, Building and Postal Unions.
No one will ever know how many Australian troops were killed with weapons and supplies donated by the ALP / ACTU and their  "Peace  Movement" Groupies and ‘Students” however these Labor Party vermin are still allowed to walk on hallowed ground every ANZAC Day weeping crocodile tears courtesy of an Onion hidden in their handkerchief's.

The Communist / Socialist mindset is not burdened by conscience, because to be a Communist / Socialist you must first jettison your conscience otherwise the Communist / Socialist manifesto, is, just like the Koran, repulsive to all but the lowest of the low.

Australian Federal Election: Labor Party censors Union appointed PM’s website,What the Labor Party did not want you to read about Julia Gillard. hear what they did not want you to read.

ALP website edits out Julia's socialist past
Matthew Franklin From:
The Australian
August 05, 2010
THE Labor Party has been caught posting an incomplete transcript of a recent Julia Gillard interview on her official website.
It excised its references to her youthful involvement in the Socialist Forum.
The party also excluded from its official record criticism of the Prime Minister's proposal for a citizens' assembly to seek a consensus on climate change policy, along with questions over whether Labor had made deals with the Greens in return for electoral preferences.
The Australian has established that a transcript on Labor's website purporting to reflect an interview the Prime Minister gave on Sydney's 2GB on July 27 excludes several minutes of the interview, the equivalent of seven pages worth of transcript.
The excised sections of the interview with Alan Jones include an exchange about how Ms Gillard worked as a typist for the Socialist Forum in 1998 as well as Jones, an outspoken right-winger, savaging Ms Gillard's position on mining tax and climate change.
A Labor campaign spokesman said last night the omission -- the exclusion of a single chunk of about a third of the interview -- was the result of an oversight in the transcribing process. "It has now been fixed and replaced on the website," the spokesman said.
During the excised section of the interview, Jones asked about Ms Gillard's acknowledged involvement in the Socialist Forum, which he described as having been "formed from the old Communist Party". Jones said Ms Gillard had said in a radio interview three years ago she had been involved with the forum "more than 20 years ago" while the Parliamentary Register of Interests said she had been involved between 1998 and 2002. He also said a 1994 flyer for a Socialist Forum event described her as a member of its management committee.
It was at this point that Labor's transcript resumed. It correctly records Ms Gillard as saying she worked for the organisation at university and retained involvement when it merged with the Fabian Society.
Ms Gillard described Jones's questions as "a load of old cobblers" and strongly defended her record on national security, rejecting the relevance of her university activities to the current election campaign.
The transcript on the Labor website also excluded an exchange in which Jones referred to criticism of the proposed citizens' assembly.
It also excluded Jones's questioning Ms Gillard on whether Labor's preference deal with the Greens came with behind-the-scenes agreements on climate change policy. The Prime Minister insisted she had made no policy deals with the Greens.
Labor Party sources said last night the error was inadvertent; political operators knew that any attempt to doctor transcripts would inevitably be detected.
"If it had been doctored specific passages would have been excluded. But this was one chunk and it was just left out in error," one source said.

Australia: Labor’s SECRET Internet Censorship / Snoop LAWS on hold until after August 2010 Federal election “……disclosure of the document uncensored "could be misleading to the public and cause confusion and premature and unnecessary debate".

No Minister: 90% of web snoop document censored to stop 'premature unnecessary debate'
SMH
BEN GRUBB
July 23, 2010 - 1:32PM
From black list to blacked out. Documents on plans to store web surfing data are heavily censored due to the possibility of 'premature and unnecessary debate'.
The federal government has censored approximately 90 per cent of a secret document outlining its controversial plans to snoop on Australians' web surfing, obtained under freedom of information (FoI) laws, out of fear the document could cause "premature unnecessary debate".
The government has been consulting with the internet industry over the proposal, which would require ISPs to store certain internet activities of all Australians - regardless of whether they have been suspected of wrongdoing - for law-enforcement agencies to access.
All parties to the consultations have been sworn to secrecy.


Industry sources have claimed that the controversial regime could go as far as collecting the individual web browsing history of every Australian internet user, a claim denied by the spokesman for Attorney-General Robert McClelland.
The exact details of the web browsing data the government wants ISPs to collect are contained in the document released to this website under FoI.
The document was handed out to the industry during a secret briefing it held with ISPs in March.
But from the censored document released, it is impossible to know how far the government is planning to take the policy.
The government is hiding the plans from the public and it appears to want to move quickly on industry consultation, asking for participants to respond within only one month after it had held the briefings.
The Attorney-General's Department legal officer, FoI and Privacy Section, Claudia Hernandez, wrote in her decision in releasing the highly censored document that the release of some sections of it "may lead to premature unnecessary debate and could potentially prejudice and impede government decision making".
Hernandez said that the material in question related to information the department was "currently weighing up and evaluating in relation to competing considerations that may have a bearing on a particular course of action or decision".
"More specifically, it is information concerning the development of government policy which has not been finalised, and there is a strong possibility that the policy will be amended prior to public consultation," she wrote.
Further, she said that although she had acknowledged the public's right to "participate in and influence the processes of government decision making and policy formulation ... the premature release of the proposal could, more than likely, create a confusing and misleading impression".
"In addition, as the matters are not settled and proposed recommendations may not necessarily be adopted, release of such documents would not make a valuable contribution to public debate."
Hernandez went further to say that she considered disclosure of the document uncensored "could be misleading to the public and cause confusion and premature and unnecessary debate".
"In my opinion, the public interest factors in favour of release are outweighed by those against," Hernandez said.
Copy of 23 7 2010 No Minister 90 of web snoop document censored to stop 'premature unnecessary debate' The "data retention regime" the government is proposing to implement is similar to that adopted by the European Union after terrorist attacks several years ago.
Greens Communications spokesman Scott Ludlam said the excuse not to release the proposal in full was "extraordinary". Since finding out about the scheme, he has launched a Senate inquiry into it and other issues.
"The idea that its release could cause 'premature' or 'unnecessary' debate is not going to go down well with the thousands of people who have been alarmed by the direction that government is taking," he said in a telephone interview.
"I would really like to know what the government is hiding in this proposal," he said, adding that he hoped that the Attorney-General's Department would be "more forthcoming" about the proposal in the senate inquiry into privacy he pushed for in June.
Deputy Leader of the Opposition in the Senate, George Brandis, said the government’s decision to censor the documented showed ‘‘how truly Orwellian this government has become".
"To refuse disclosure of material that had already been circulated among stakeholders, on an issue of intense current political debate on the ground that it might provide unnecessary discussion, shows that the Gillard government has become beyond satire," Brandis said.
Online users' lobby group Electronic Frontiers Australia spokesman Colin Jacobs said what was released was "a joke".
"We have to assume the worse," he said. "And that is that the government has been badgering the telcos with very aggressive demands that should worry everybody."
Jacobs said that the onus was now on government to "explain what data they need, what problem it solves and, just as importantly, why it can't be done in an open process".
"The more sensitive the process and the data they want, the more transparent the government needs to be about why it wants that data," he said. "Nobody could argue that public consultation ... would somehow help criminals," he added.
"We have to turn the age-old question back on the government: if you don’t have anything to hide, then you shouldn't be worried about people having insight into the consultation.
"This is a very sensitive and important issue. It raises huge questions about privacy, data security and the burden of increased costs to smaller internet service providers. What really needs to be debated is what particular information they want, because that's where the privacy issue rears its ugly head," he said.
According to one internet industry source, the release of the highly censored document was "illustrative of government's approach to things where they don't want people to know what they're thinking in advance of them getting it ready to package for public consumption".
"And that’s worrying."
The Attorney-General's spokesman declined to comment, referring comment to the department. The department said it had "nothing to add" to the FOI letter it provided.

Australia:Former Labor leader Mark Latham says Liberal Party leader Tony Abbott more honest than Labor PM Julia Gillard

Latham attacks Gillard as fraud
Brendan Nicholson
The Australian
July 22, 2010 12:00AM
FORMER Labor leader Mark Latham last night exploded out of retirement to launch a scathing attack on the government.
He declared Julia Gillard's population policy was a "fraud of the worst order" and her education revolution had achieved nothing.





And Mr Latham suggested that Tony Abbott was more honest than the Prime Minister, a one-time friend of his. Mr Latham told Sky News that Ms Gillard was running a phony population campaign while saying she opposed the idea of a big Australia.
"She's been going on about sustainable population growth," Mr Latham said. "That's been her mantra for the past three or four days. It's an issue that's come out of the blue and she's defining her prime ministership around it.
"Today she said it's not an immigration debate. Where does she think all these people have been coming from in western Sydney? We grow them in our back garden? I mean, for every four people who move to Sydney from other parts of Australia, seven move to Sydney from overseas."
Mr Latham, the former MP for the southwestern Sydney seat of Werriwa, said any serious debate about population had to be about immigration.
"If it's not an immigration debate, it's no debate," he said.
"And I'll tell you what it is, it's a fraud. It's an attempt to con people in western Sydney that she's going to do something about congestion. And I think some smartie in the Labor Party worked out that sending out signals on population would be a proxy for the asylum-seeker and climate change debates. It's clever politics. But it's a fraud . . . of the worst order."
Mr Latham also supports putting a stop to Sydney's expansion and he said the way to do that was to stop moving more people into the western suburbs. He said that as a resident of western Sydney for 45 years, he was aware it was "absolutely chock-a-block".
He also attacked the education achievements at the core of Ms Gillard's push for re-election, saying he's seen no evidence of any education revolution.
Mr Latham then attacked the government's health policy, saying he did not see how putting a different set of bureaucrats in charge of hospital funding would produce a revolutionary result.
He said Ms Gillard was a changed person and suggested Mr Abbott was more honest. "She used to be fairly free-wheeling and open about things," he said.
"She has mastered the art of narrowness in public life."

Xstrata blames $586m suspension on mining tax

Mining company Xstrata says it is suspending almost $600 million to develop two Queensland mining projects because of the Federal Government's proposed tax on mining profits.

Xstrata has suspended $586 million for the development of the Wandoan thermal coal project in central Queensland and the extension of the Ernest Henry copper mine in the state's north-west.

The company says the two projects would have created 3,250 new jobs which have now been put at risk.

The Federal Member for Kennedy, Independent Bob Katter, says it is a shattering blow to his electorate.

He says it should be clear to the Government that its mining tax is diabolical for the industry.

"Three thousand two hundred jobs will vanish," Mr Katter said.

"A further 1,000 permanent jobs will also vanish and unfortunately for me a significant proportion of those 1,000 permanent jobs is my own home town of Cloncurry.

"I knew this was coming, I've been desperately afraid and now the evil day has come."

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd says he expected announcements like this.

"I said at the very beginning of this debate ... that there would be ... threats of project closures, there would be projects threatened to be frozen, or frozen," he said.

"This is part and parcel of what will be the normal argy-bargy of a very tense debate.

"No mining company I've met so far has whacked up their hand and said they'd like to pay more tax."

 

Beijing’s highest ranking official in Australia, Australian Prime Minister Lu Kewen aka. “Kevin 07 Rudd” is no doubt pleased with the results so early in his governments campaign to destroy the Australian mining industry and prepare it, for his and his Labor Party’s Beijing based Masters to pick up the pieces for a song.

Lu Kewen aka.Kevin Rudd, Beijing’s very own Australian “Liar for Hire” PM

 

Rudd will pay for voodoo politics

Michael Costa
The Australian
June 01, 2010

ONE of the critical issues at the next federal election will be the character of Kevin Rudd.

After a string of broken promises, the public is asking: is the Prime Minister believable? Is he to be trusted? Does he believe in anything other than himself?

Simon Benson's new book, Betrayal, sheds light on this issue. I and others involved in the attempt to privatise sections of the power industry in NSW to fund an ambitious transport plan have known the answer to these questions for quite a while.

We have been constrained in commenting on these issues because the principal victim of Rudd's failure to display the character one would expect from a national political leader of substance remained quiet.

Morris Iemma's public exposure of the promise Rudd made to him before the previous federal election and his failure to deliver is timely and important in assessing Rudd's character. The revelations will rightly influence the next federal election.

Alan Jones, Costa & Iemma

At a personal level these events are a kind of political morality tale. On one side is Iemma, an honourable man who was motivated by a misguided but strongly held belief in labour solidarity and doing the right thing by the ALP. On the other side is Rudd, a person who made a promise and consequently accrued benefits without reciprocating when he was required to do so. It is about the selflessness and selfishness. It is about character.

Despite claims yesterday by former left-wing deputy premier John Watkins, leading figures in the Iemma state government were well aware of Rudd's promise.

Unfortunately for Watkins and the dysfunctional ALP machine's predictable attempts to place responsibility for the failure on me and my negotiating style, Iemma's revelations finally provide a context. The "Costa won't negotiate", "Costa refused to do a deal" and "Costa is mad" myths no doubt will give comfort to the cabal of self-interested incompetents that brought down a popularly elected premier and replaced him with an inexperienced and ultimately disastrous leader in Nathan Rees.

Those seeking a fuller explanation of the failed strategy now have the missing facts. These facts are critical in understanding the government's approach. The historians can fight over their interpretation of these facts. But they cannot be ignored.

The fallout from this disastrous episode of labour history remains.

What are left are unsettled disputes about the relationship between the union base and the parliamentary ALP, and questions about the role of the traditionally anonymous ALP machine in policy formulation.

Ray Hadley talks to Simon Benson

In a broader sense, the failed electricity strategy in NSW provides an insight into the contest that has been occurring in Australian party politics between politicians who believe ideas and policy are the core of politics, and those politicians who believe winning elections at any cost is the measure of success.

The latter group illogically rules out the possibility that you can do the right thing in policy terms and still win elections.

The win-at-any-cost politicians appear to be more interested in the benefits and trappings of office than undertaking diligently the responsibilities of office.

The new machine men think politics is as simple as borrowing techniques and strategies from the product marketing textbook. Politicians are now brands that can be subjected to brand management techniques. In their mind the same techniques used to sell soap powder can be equally successful in selling brand Rudd. It's a kind of voodoo politics that has turned techniques such as focus groups and polling on their head. Instead of using information derived from these techniques to adapt the message around a well-thought-out policy, they use these techniques to develop a policy.

One of the consequences of this type of voodoo politics has been a dramatic change in the status of politicians.The rise in modern political techniques is strongly correlated with the decline in public confidence in politicians.

Political spin and media management eventually catch up with a government. In Rudd's case the speed of this catch-up has been truly dramatic.

Rudd is still advised by the same people who brought down the Iemma government.

The irony is that despite their obsession with brand management techniques, their application of these techniques has been as poor as the Rudd government's administration of its stimulus packages. They've taken brand Rudd from a market share of more than 70 per cent in the last quarter to less than 50 per cent in this quarter.

If they really were in marketing, they would have been sacked for this result. The Prime Minister has only himself to blame for the mess his government confronts. What should be dawning on Rudd is that by reneging on his commitment to Iemma, he also has crippled his own re-election agenda.

The Labor Party is now dysfunctional, particularly in electorally vulnerable NSW.

If Rudd had honoured his promise to Iemma, he would have had a cashed-up state government delivering much needed infrastructure. Rudd had the political authority, after he decisively won the federal election, to deliver on his promise.

He chose to put his political popularity before the policy position. He chose to take the advice of machine men.

These same machine men no doubt are closely watching the opinion polls and planning to politically execute him if his standing in the polls continues to decline.

If this occurs, as in all good morality tales, he will have brought this on himself for not having the character to honour his promise to Iemma.

Michael Costa is a former treasurer of NSW.

Six years of HARD LABOR ? No Way.

Column - The greatest liar in the Lodge

Andrew Bolt
Daily Telegraph
Wednesday, June 02, 2010


I CAN’T recall when I first knew I could never trust Kevin Rudd to tell the truth.

Was it when he claimed he and his widowed mum were thrown out of their home by a heartless landlord?

Was it when he said he had a memory blank about his night at Scores?

Perhaps it was when he said during the ABC’s cricket coverage he remembered as a 17-year-old standing at the Gabba to watch Dennis Lillee and Jeff Thomson tear into the English.

He remembered the crowd chanting “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust, if Thommo don’t get you, then Lillee must”, but even more clearly he remembered 42-year-old Colin Cowdrey bravely walking on to the field and shaking the hand of Thomson.

But “Ashes to ashes” was never a chant, and Cowdrey didn’t play in Brisbane, joining the tour in Perth.

Maybe I’m wrong to seize on such small stuff, or mean to object that he said “sorry” to a “stolen generations” no one can find. Another lie.

But it’s clear the public is also belatedly catching on. In fact, Rudd’s credibility is now shot to pieces.

He was fatally damaged already, having falsely claimed global warming was “the great moral and economic challenge of our time”, only to drop his emissions trading scheme when it got too hard.

But last week finished him off, and even left him exposed to what in normal times is a crime in politics - misleading Parliament. Rudd was accused, credibly, by former NSW premier Morris Iemma and treasurer Michael Costa of having lied when he told Iemma before the last federal election to postpone his plans to sell the state’s electricity assets until Rudd won office, when they’d then join to “f---” the unions. After the election, Rudd welched on that deal.

But more terrible for his reputation have been the deceits to justify his effective embezzlement of $38 million of taxpayers’ money to pay for political advertising for his troubled “super profits” tax on miners.

In how many ways has Rudd again shown his word to be worthless?

He promised before the election to ban such advertising, which he called “a cancer” and gave an “absolute 100 per cent guarantee” the auditor-general would have to approve such spending.

But the auditor-general has been sacked from that job, and Rudd has dipped into your pockets for the very same kind of “cancer”.

To excuse himself, Rudd had Special Minister of State Joe Ludwig last week offer two reasons for an exemption for “extremely urgent action”. And both reasons were frauds.

First, claimed Ludwig, there was “co-ordinated misinformation about the changes (which) is currently being promulgated in paid advertising”, which means the ads by miners.

But Rudd has since been forced to admit he’d approved the cash for these ads as long ago as April 20, weeks before the mining industry ran any of its own.

Ludwig’s second excuse was even dodgier: that the ads were needed since this new tax “involves changes to the value of some capital assets, they impact on financial markets”.

Uh, oh. Ludwig had contradicted what Rudd told Parliament the day before, when he denied his tax plan had hurt the markets: “Share prices around the world have fallen because of the crisis in Greece.”

Costa now asks: “Is the Prime Minister believable? Is he credible? ... This bloke has lost the public.”

He lost me long ago. Now I cannot think of a bigger liar to hold his high office.

The Australian Public Service tells Aborigines it will give them extra help to get a government job, and introduces you to the Aborigines it’s hired already:

If you have any questions about whether people should receive extra government help for insisting on a racial identity almost undetectable to the naked eye, put them to the Aboriginal heads of the Rudd Government’s new National Congress of Australia’s First Peoples:

Australia: Comrade Lu Kewen’s aka. Kevin Rudd’s Internet censorship almost complete

 

Access Denied Pt 1.

“The idea that the Internet is this scary place that parents don't understand, that everybody needs protection from, isn't a view that's held by most of society.

What it actually is, is a scary place that politicians don't understand, that politicians need protection from and that's why we're having this debate now.”

Access Denied Pt.2

U.N. group seeks control of Internet

GENEVA -- Governments spearheaded by China, Brazil, India, Russia and Saudi Arabia are trying to place the Internet under the control of the United Nations or its member governments, a move that the United States and other developed countries are determined to resist.

The issue has cropped up in preparatory talks for a world summit on the information society to be held from Dec. 10 to 12 in Geneva, with the stated goal of advancing the management and worldwide use of the Internet, especially in poorer nations.
Delegates from rich and developing nations remained divided on the matter at the end of the latest round of talks on Friday, senior diplomats said.

"We will continue to fight hard to ensure that Internet governance remains a balanced enterprise among all stakeholders and continues to be private-sector-led," said the chief of the U.S. delegation, Ambassador David A. Gross.
Pierre Gagne, executive director of the world summit, earlier identified control of the Internet as one of two key issues in the talks, adding that control and financial issues "will probably be the last issues to be resolved" at the summit.
Many developing countries argue that governments need to play a greater role in managing and setting policy for the Internet, while the United States, the European Union and Japan, among others, say government interference could stifle the development of the dynamic medium.
The Internet, at present, is loosely managed by a private organization in California named the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, which coordinates such matters as Internet servers and domain names.
Countries with developing and emerging economies would like to hand over that authority to a U.N. agency, such as the International Telecommunications Union (ITU).
The Internet medium is too important to be left in the hands of one major power, some argue, and others say problems such as cybercrime and protection of intellectual property rights require greater government involvement.
Yoshio Utsumi, secretary-general of the ITU, which will host the December summit, said in an interview that Brazil is "a very strong advocate" of his agency taking over the Internet.
China, Russia, India, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Senegal and many other African countries were also "keen" for the United Nations to have a role, he said.
But, he said, the differences of opinion were "too big" to be settled before the delegates meet in Geneva next month. Other diplomats said there might be no decision even then.
The summit also will deal with questions such as how to block the spread of viruses, prevent unwanted "spam" and prevent the use of the medium for criminal purposes such as identity theft, Western officials said.
Russia has proposed that the final declaration address Internet security in both "civil and security fields," but many countries fear that any reference to military security could limit freedom of expression, Mr. Utsumi said.
There also is pressure for a strong statement in support of free expression on the Internet but sources said that is being resisted by China and other countries that want to maintain strong oversight of the medium.
Nitin Desai, special adviser to U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, said the core purpose of the summit is to establish a common vision for the information society, to utilize new technologies to overcome poverty and to find ways to make Internet access affordable to all.
The president of Senegal has proposed the creation of a "global digital solidarity fund" to help poor countries establish Internet access. The ITU estimates that fewer than 1 percent of low-income country residents are Internet subscribers.
The United States and other industrialized countries say the existing mechanisms are sufficient and argue that funding a new international bureaucracy would not be an effective way to spread information technology.
Poor countries would be better served by establishing an environment in which the private sector would develop the needed infrastructure, the industrialized countries say.

Dear President Chávez,
We, the undersigned citizens of Australia, would like to extend a warm invitation for you to visit our country. We have watched developments in Venezuela with great interest. We have been impressed by the great effort that your government has taken to improve the living standards of the majority of Venezuelans. We have also noted with keen attention the moves that your government has begun to make to create a society based on popular participation in all spheres of society—from the workplace up to the national government.
Although we are on the opposite side of the globe we feel that our shared ideals of social justice and democracy bring us close together. Every country has its own traditions and culture and has to find its own solutions, but what Venezuela has been able to achieve in so little time will be a source of inspiration and ideas for many in Australia.
chavez-on-paradethat our shared ideals of social justice and democracy bring us close together”
“…..source of inspiration and ideas for many in Australia.”
In this light we believe that a visit to our country by yourself would not only help to improve the awareness of the Australian people of developments in Venezuela, but also be an unparalleled opportunity to strengthen the ties of friendship and solidarity between our two peoples.
All signatures will be posted to Nelson Davila, Venezuela’s charge d’affaires in Australia, Canberra.(Todas las firmas de invitación serán enviadas a Nelson Dávila, Encargado de Negocios de Venezuela en Australia, Canberra)

Rudd backtracks on socialist label
Samantha Maiden and Verity Edwards
The Australian
December 15, 2006
KEVIN Rudd has junked a pledge to remove the word socialism from the Labor Party's constitution just a day after denouncing it as an "arcane, 19th-century" doctrine.
Three years ago he declared himself "an old-fashioned Christian socialist", but yesterday he was busily denouncing socialism and also backflipping on a 2001 push to remove it from the ALP's constitution.
Mr Rudd has previously declared the ALP's socialist dogma of controlling "production, distribution and exchange" had nostalgia value only and was "entirely unmemorable".
When asked yesterday whether he would now take action, the Labor leader changed tack and said he had no plans to pursue the reforms at next year's ALP national conference.
"I have no plans of doing so," he said in Adelaide yesterday.
"I've already indicated where I stand philosophically in terms of the questions of my own beliefs, my own values and the priorities and objectives which I believe for a modern, progressive, democratic party.
"These are core social democratic values and I'm proud to be a committed social democrat as I have been all my life."
Mr Rudd's emphatic rejection of socialism was frontpage news in Melbourne's The Age yesterday. The newspaper's website also included video images of the Labor leader denouncing socialism but admitting he did not want workers being left to the "dung heap of the market".
"I am not a socialist. I have never been a socialist and I never will be a socialist," Mr Rudd said.
However, his bold statement of values was immediately undermined by the emergence of another declaration in 2003, when he was quoted in another Fairfax newspaper as saying: "I am an old-fashioned Christian socialist."
Mr Rudd also cites Keir Hardie, founder of the 19th century British Christian socialist movement, as one of his heroes.
In a homage to another of his political heroes, British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who fought to expunge socialism from the British Labour Party's constitution in 1994, Mr Rudd has repeatedly said the ALP should follow suit. "The socialist objective ... should be abolished," he said in 2002. "While we may not have taken the socialist objective seriously ... there are others outside the party who have - and have been fundamentally alienated by it."
Socialism has clearly been on the Labor leader's mind for a while. In his maiden speech to parliament, Mr Rudd said: "Nambour, for those of you who are unfamiliar with it, was not a major centre of revolutionary socialism in the 1970s - the cane growers hall even less so."
Former Labor Party president Barry Jones said yesterday the ALP's constitution had already been updated during a special national conference in 1981.
"(But) if there's going to be a broad debate about what we stand for that's terrific because, in a way, for some decades we just haven't talked about it," he said.
Mr Jones pointed to a discussion in his autobiography, A Thinking Reed, which refers to comments by Polish philosopher Leszek Kilakowski, who said: "The trouble with the social democratic idea is that it does not stock and does not sell any of the existing ideological commodities which various totalitarian movements offer dream-hungry youth."
