Commenting on "Federally funded insulation sparks 13 house fires in Melbourne"

I can't agree more that the Rudd Government has no concept of money management. The insulation grant benefits the insulation material producers, installation companies which employ large team of inexperienced cowboys; many are overseas students and people who don't quite understand English.
Roof insulation is a totally biased grant. A lot of heat gain or heat loss is through glass windows. The grant should have included all drapes, curtains, internal or external window blinds, door seals, window films, and any glass insulation etc.
I really wonder any member of the Government has substantial financial interests in the insulation business. The opposition, Liberal Party, should seriously look into this matter. I smell rats!
