Stop Smart Meters Australia 
Would not like to live in South Australia. Do not let these greedy Energy Companies or Politicians push these smart meters on you. They do cause serious health concerns and no one cares, so look after your own health and your financial purse strings, in reference to escalating smart meter costs. Refuse to take them and be brave stand up for your health and rights. Jen
I feel sorry for South Australians. Some people are going to get very sick if this goes ahead. For more information on the effects of microwave exposure read the Bioinitiative Report online.
Dear Readers,
These Electric so-called smart meters are stupid meters and do not save you the Electricity Customers people any money. These Electric so-called Smart Meter are actually Illegal Telephone Tapping Devices and are just a huge scam to THIEVE ever more money off us, especially when this so-called Flexible Pricing starts around the end of December 2013. If you still have the Safe and Passive Electric Analog Meter, then padlock your Electric Meter Box and only after you have padlocked it with a stout padlock, then get up your $167,000 Dollar Legal Anti-Trespass sign from the Commonwealth Government.
Good news though, I went to a meeting with around 14 other people and a dopey Microwave so-called Smart Meter was taken from a home by a very sensible and brave young father whose 12 year old daughter has been made very sick from this Evil Microwave so-called smart meter poisoning her body with its DEADLY Microwave Radiation.
We as a group of around 15 people took this ACCURSED dopey Life Wrecking Meter back to PowerCor in Victoria and handed it back to the manager with a polite letter demanding that he answer this very brave father in person, in a proper letter of reply. This brave father with help from friends had to remove this ACCURSED Type 2B Carcinogen Causing far from “Smart Meter” and a few days earlier had a knowledgeable person install a proper SAFE AND PROVEN TO BE SAFE ANALOG Electric Meter he had to purchased for himself. That is the same type with the five little clock faces and the hands that indicate the amount of electricity one has used over around 90 days.
The Manager at the PowerCor Depot was polite enough to us all but he looked very worried at the end of our some 15 person meeting with him.
Where can we purchase an analogue meter?
great question!
I was considering moving to that state at some stage, but now this………
Reblogged this on The GOLDEN RULE and commented:
Sad that Victoria is lacking in initiative and commonsense!
Can we trust them to make it optional ? Dont trust politicians any more.
Another state down the gurgler – what a shame!
Cross South Australia off my holiday destinations list.
