The knowledge and expertise exists in helping people figure this stuff out. To ensure that 12-39% of people get their needs met.
But people want to pay off their houses as soon as possible so they can go on international holidays every year, so... 🤷

Kids aren't eating out rubbish bins because transgender people have access to healthcare.
A shortage of resources happens because as a society we're not ready to evolve past neoliberalism.

lol the White House just confirmed that transgender males have to register for military service because they’re men, but transgender females don’t because they’re women

From mainstream news outlets within the past day.
New Zealand ranked 136th in world on fair wealth distribution leading to call for new tax Here's what you need to be in New Zealand's top 1% Report reveals vast inequality for Pasifika workers Redesign Tax To Work For Everyone Who are you going to vote for xor? If inequality and poverty is genuinely something you care about then you can't vote National or ACT. Greens? TOP?

Yep, it gets lip service but nobody is ever held to account. Old mate is the minister of child poverty, I think I read somewhere that she's spent an average of 40min per month on the portfolio. Jack Tame tried to hold her to account once but got some absolute BS response.
As for who am i going to vote for? I don't believe any party on the left can claim to care for inequality and poverty at all. The likes of national don't have the creativity to create a market with effective working conditions that will enable people to get ahead. And I think politicians and govt departments are rotten to the core and won't help anyone. If anyone, i'd vote for TOP. |

The government is held to account by the way we vote, assuming our democracy is authentic.
We're held to account by reality. If we invest ourselves into what offers genuine returns, we benefit. If we neglect that which genuinely needs support, we suffer. We can attempt to ensure our own people reap all the benefit, and all the suffering is held by others. We can complain about socialism or communism all we want, but ultimately we're all in each other's light cones, we're all in this together.

Jesus Rowling is an insufferable self-absorbed twat. Way to prove Norton's point.

PM Jacinda Ardern says funding for school Shakespeare festival to continue
So an event that was already confirmed would continue by organisers without this funding, gets to keep this public money because the change was successfully framed as "cancelling Shakespeare". Like funding isn't desperately needed everywhere in our public education system. I guess it shows how vulnerable Labour are feeling.

The moment Jacinda made the frowny face everyone knew this money was gonna come from somewhere. But the whole thing is a farce and just shows, yes, how fucked up education is in NZ. $30K is a rounding error. BUT IMPERIALISM!!1

I also made the mistake of thinking that governments had to spend from a limited tax base and that numbers had to balance, but apparently that's "outdated nonsense", and although MMT causes inflation, it's fine, and it's only temporary, and our economy is just a social construct.

You're so cringe Ab, what the fuck happened to you?
This is what happens to people when they enjoy some equity. Forget the endless events that would love $1k funding, $5k funding. Fuck their poverty needs! The cunts! They'd probably just waste it, useless brown buggers. Amirite, Ab? Let's just get hung up cause someone said something bad about colonisation. How DARE they! Fuck me. All the while schools rot, kids see gangs as the way to improve their circumstances.

Like Jacinda, I believe that all children be they ne’er so vile deserve equitable access to hear and perform the works of the greatest author in one of our official languages.
