A government based fiat currency is better than a debt based fiat currency issued by a private organization. Whatever happened to National sovereignty?
Much respect for your defense of free speech!
First you need to understand that Capitalism is a CONSEQUENCE of scarcity! Your socialist utopia could only potentially be achieved if you technologically solved for the underlying problem of resource scarcity among others things. I wont say it's ...
https://sunnah.com/abudawud/43/499 "A woman used to perform circumcision in Medina. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to her: Do not cut severely as that is better for a woman and more desirable for a husband. " He doesn't out right condemn the practice! Now because ...
"Most people agree that the right to freedom of speech is not an absolute one and that a line should be drawn" It's irrelevant what most people think when it comes to issues of human rights. Not so longer the majority did not care for same sex marriage and...
Labour is completely fucked in the head! While National was in power, one of the things that really pissed me off was about the National party buying a bunch of shitty throw away helicopters from Australia, that the Australian state deemed not suitable. ...
Like it or not Nations change, and Israel will not be content with the way the land is split at the moment. The Arabs who live there will just have to accept it and move on with their lives.
At least someone dare mentioned the banks and in a critical manner! What is frustrating about most socialists, commies, leftists etc is that they rarely ever mention the corrupt monetary system, or it's primary benefactors, the banks. They always just ...
Those people took that gamble against their own life! Australia is simply protecting it's border and holding everyone to the law! They are more than welcome to try and enter said country LEGALLY!
Yet another burden on the tax payer! Great...
An education system is ONLY free when it's CURRICULUM is made free! What Labour is doing is not free education, it's tax payer funded education! Call it as it is! As long as the curriculum is behind curtains, education will not cannot be free!
I didn't say it had to be applied to the exclusion of social projects etc. The argument put forth by the article is one of getting rid of capitalism and I was countering that. As for child labour/slave labour, if it isn't made in NZ or a western country, ...
Bill out of consideration for others comment concisely and to the point. You go on and on about sino phobists and different types of communists???? What are you trying to say? I feel whatever it was, you could have said it in a few sentences. You also seem...
... of you shove meat, eggs, fish down your throat with little...
The government shouldn't have ANY business doing anything like marriage! It's also discriminatory towards those who are poly or single. We need to be working towards getting rid of these types of contract systems.
Gloriz criticizes patriotism but embraces Maori ethno nationalism... Maybe she should rethink that bit again.
Yes, it's incredibly naive to think that all Chinese immigration is purely individual driven. There is clearly a colonizing mindset among many.
Sounds like Mike is in denial of Chinese colonialism! There's nothing wrong with questioning the intentions of mass Chinese immigration.
It's astonishing that she might still be potentially considered as a candidate for the next election. Someone that lost to Trump shouldn't get a second chance. But that said, there is no doubt that democrat voters are to be blamed for the most part. Bernie...
Trump didn't sign the TPP deal Jacinda! Finger waving at the overtly juvenile behaviour of Trump isn't required. Everyone can see the juvenile behaviour for what it is. But standing up for the country and not letting it get ripped off is crucial and could ...
Meanwhile in Saudi Arabia, women are only now enjoying their right to drive vehicles! But yeah, let's make no mention of the degeneracy of Ideologies like Islam and it's oppressive effects on women. Let's just vilify all men by the actions of a few ...
Don't talk about it in soft terms like, why won't they contribute to the common good, speak of it as a fee that one must pay in order to live in respective nation. And really that's what it is. It's absurd to think that you get to live in a country for ...
Treat citizens like humans! What an idea!
@Matthew Whitehead You have to say it as it is! You tell the people the truth about the consequences of their actions. Better, you hold people accountable to their actions (by word not by force). We have to ask ourselves as to whether we consider climate ...
Regarding spies, what about the mass surveillance that the government is carrying out thanks to National. I've not heard anything from Labour or Green about no longer subjecting citizens to that humiliation! If only there was a properly conservative party ...
Even Trump left the TPPA!
Not wanting to incentivize smugglers and more "refugees" from trying to illegally migrate makes perfect sense. However, keeping them detained there for so long doesn't make any sense. They should be returned back to the country of their origin.
lol you can blame the consumers that feed these corporations then! Take responsibility as a consumer!
"The unfortunate catch is, that much as you or I might feel compelled to act, this socio/economic system has us shackled – we can’t move." You have plenty of choices to make as a consumer! Stop acting helpless. Identify and address all of your consumptions...
@Weka "What’s the point of sanctuaries? We could just keep some of each species in a zoo." People typically keep animals in zoos for THEIR viewing pleasure. So when you ask the above question regarding the use of sanctuaries, it is pretty easy to see that ...
@Weka "the vegans that give a shit about the environment and the fundamentalist ones that believe that killing all animals is wrong and are using environmental arguments falsely." You don't have a clue as to what a vegan is even after having explained it ...
