"case managers check in with recipients as individuals (that also hasn’t happened)" Is that so? You really don't have the first fucking clue what you're on about do you? Where did you get that little howler from?
"The 49% of shares being floated aren’t underwritten by the government. " Of course they are you idiot. Too essential to fail.
Upandcomer do you think I don't understand all that? I am proposing that NZ steps outside the box here, takes a leaf out of Argentina's book, and simply acts punitively against what is to most of us, a deliberate attack on the country. The Hollow Men made ...
Of course, if the next government wee really sly, they could not announce their intentions, then simply point to some random alarming climate indicator and say that, regretfully, repossession of our property was in the National Interest, and that all New ...
That was an example to illustrate the political tactic, HS - didn't you pick up on that?
"...a good attitude". And there it is. You all know what I'm talking about. With the probable exception of Upandcomer. I'm all right. Fuck you jack.
What's the advice that I always hear? Only invest in that which you understand? Something like that anyway. "Safely invest" is an oxymoron. If these shares are guaranteed to provide a "safe investment" that is because they are underwritten by the public. ...
My second line? The NZX is a private company. If it can't succeed without looting the public purse it deserves to close. Rainfall in the catchment areas is forecast to increase with the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, but yes, I expect unpredictable ...
"The NZX is moribund." Fucking cry baby. Is this private company too big to fail? The rest of your concerns can be addressed with a capital gains tax. "Somewhere safe to invest"? The virtue of investment is that it involves risk. Anything else is just ...
Interesting framing from The Herald. People who have taken in their neglected grandchildren are among the $2000-a-week beneficiaries who will be returning to work under welfare reforms, passed through Parliament this week... It included a 60-year-old East ...
No, I'm serious: this policy will harm the country, and the government knows it. It will benefit none but the government's overseas clients. The National Party, in its current "Hollow Men" nadir, acts as a fifth column.
Just an extreme position deliberately adopted to make the eventual compromise seem more palatable - like proposing to sterilise the unemployed when all you really intend to do is make them homeless.
Alternatively, perhaps you lack the cognitive ability to make the connection.
lol, perhaps you have forgotten that parliament can exempt any bill from BoR scrutiny - normally this provision is used to attack the weak and dispossessed, but I think we should use it against avaricious Quislings instead. The Labour Party would have to ...
Yes, they made our recession worse, especially coupled with the brainless austerity policies of the zero business experience, tax-payer tit-sucking English. One reason they call him "Double Dipton" is because of his fraudulent accommodation lies, and the ...
:roll:
lol Parliament is sovereign - if it decides to repossess our property without compensation it can write exemptions from all your whining into the bill. I'm proposing this as a punitive measure: I am sick of the National Party betraying New Zealand: they ...
Three years? By which time they won't even be in government. Labour and the Greens need to announce that they will not pay Key's bribes, since the stolen property will be returned to its rightful owners with no compensation - I would be prepared to ...
Earth to Rusty - our main trading partners - Australia and China - didn't even go into recession. Next feeble excuse...
Jenny the power of oil is measured in energy - joules per kilogram, not dollars.
"Lower barriers" - you live in the country considered 3rd easiest to do business in (although we were 2nd in 2008). If you can't get a business going under these circumstances you aren't competent to own one at all. You've had lower taxes since 2008 and ...
Click on whichever special character you want to use, and press "select" and "copy" - then go to whatever you are typing and hold the "ctrl" (control) key down and press "v". Alternatively right-click and choose "paste".
Oh great. Another positive feedback kicks in much earlier than expected.
The ones between your ears :)
Sorry, your random grab-bag of fact-free prejudices.
Here we go. Anyone care to comment on the legality of Key's share loyalty package?
"Shameful misuse" - nonsense - ignoring the problem would have been shameful. The alternative approach would have been massive hikes in the minimum wage and quite likely a cap on top end salaries to go with it. Not sure that would have been easier to ...
On a windows operating system, you can find macrons and much much more in the "character map". Look for it in the "system tools" submenu, in the "accessories" folder on your "start" menu. I keep a link to it in the task bar.
Perhaps I misspoke - I suppose what I am trying to say has to do with the abject humiliation of having your political philosophy represented by such a person.
"Labour need some leadership calling NZers to be better than this!!" Ditto the Greens.
The Free Syria Army are not from Syria. Muzza can tell, it says so on the internet.
