-be surprised if the Govt imposed the MBovis strategy without farmers input.
-Health funding was restricted by the Key Govt as they were obsessed with producing a surplus to highlight their supposed economic management skill.
- people working in RE have a vested interest and always promote those ludicrous ideas..as well as younger gen spend too much on coffees.
- people choose not to live in isolated areas...they need work to pay the mortgage!
-how can there not be a housing shortage when the NZ population has increased by more than 1 million in the last 16-17 years!
-there is NO shortage of money...I showed how banks create it,and if there was,prices would not have exploded.Dialling interest rates up or down is the big factor.
-there is a well known,rather unkind saying-'if you can't get a real job...why not try Real Estate.....you will find they are, to be mild...a very diverse bunch.
-your farmer friend was dead right,and future generations will pay a ruinous price for rampant greed and excess.
-as for Covid- NZ's approach has been lauded around the world.It's certainly far from perfect but it requires bi-partisan co-operation, not points scoring from an opposition seemingly bereft of any cohesion.
-the so called 'free market' does not exist=merely a political construct to validate this chicanery.
-funnily enough the worst examples of Socialism according to one poster are attributed to a National Govt in the 60's.
We are all Socialists now...everyone has their hand out for gummint...money.
