Affordable safety is a political ideology.
With this government you get user pays (unless you are a Packer and thus exempt from tax).
With the opposition you get "we said what they said" and thus no viable opposition at all.
Rather than petitioning Anderson (who is too dumb and under too much pressure to listen) you need to be fairly up the rear of the ALP convincing them that safety is a community issue and thus a community expence.
Then you ask the community what risk they are prepared to accept and tell them what cost.
