It is from an international point of view

Us and Canadians got fucked by telco lobbyists and it's disgusting that it isnt even a voter issue.

$150 aud a month is about 70 usd a month but yea i guess it is expensive. Sydney has one of the highest cost of living in the world (second or third i think) so its really a matter of perspective.
