Some good news from National: we can still afford to pay $1billion annually to those who don't need it:

What's that? Dishonest, incongruous politicians? I don't think that has to be a given.

No, the socioeconomic structures of the Western world being unable to afford the lifestyles to which retiring Baby Boomers feel they are entitled.
And retirees can legally vote. A 5-year-old with asthma in some leaky mouldy shithole can't. So guess whose dick gets sucked. |

There needs to be an employer and employee incentive to keep working after 65. Unless I had oodles of money in the bank to waste away on cruises or somesuch, health permitting I'd rather remain socially productive and work for as long as possible. To think that once you hit 35 you "only" have 30 more years of income is daunting.

I thought the Auckland housing market was retarded two years ago, guess I was wrong eh.
Where is all the credit lines coming from that are enabling people to load up with such ridiculous mortgages? |
25th June 2015, 13:02 | #3213 |
|
The inflated house market itself of course.
Buy a house, wait a while, or make some 'improvements', have its market value revalued as being 20% higher than the purchase price. Extend that mortgage and use the money from that as the deposit on the next house. Rinse and repeat.

By "logging" you mean "digging them up" yeah?
|
26th June 2015, 16:50 | #3221 |
|
I mean removing Kauri logs to sell them, like in the article. I know, I know, I'm a kiwi, I should be up to play with forestry lingo, forgiveness please.

Only just catching up on this one, but it's the environmental damage of tractors and diggers that's the problem isn't it?
|

No, it's the laws protecting NZ heritage from being exported overseas for cheap, being skirted by local exporters (one of whom happens to be married to a current National MP.)

Isocrates: “Democracy destroys itself because it abuses its right to freedom and equality. Because it teaches its citizens to consider audacity as a right, lawlessness as a freedom, abrasive speech as equality, and anarchy as progress.”

Paper apologises for stating what is assumed but not proven.
I'm not sure why people would assume the worst of National? Maybe it's the 50% jump in homeless people in the Auckland CBD?

Yeah, assumptions should be good enough eh. Let's start treating all assumptions as fact.

What are you talking about? There are loads of facts in the papers showing National to be money grubbing cunts.
