Another great example of Socialism in action

[Finn]

I lived in Sweden during the early 90's and have since been back about 3 or 4 times since then. Like a horrible cancer, I have seen first hand how extreme left wing politics have ruined a once magnificent country. My ex (Swedish) has just returned there after living in NZ for 5 years and even her centrist views have changed.

Go ahead and watch it. This is why NZ made the rightful decision to not only get rid of Clark and her evil empire, but kick her the hell out of this country.

Yes and the rest of France is about as bad. Using immigration policies to show the World how liberal you are will always end up kicking you in the nuts.

Coincidentally, I'll be passing through Paris on my way south in about 3 - 4 weeks. I'll keep my baggage very close at all times.

Dang...thought they'd caught Ghostrider. :shit:

[Milts]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't 'socialism' about economics, not necessarily liberal immigration laws?

Haha, and the Key-stone Kops are sooooo much better, with ministers ripping $900/week from your and my pocket to live in their own fuggin' house.

Greedy-money grubbing-fuck everyone else-I'm ok CUNT...and this is the bloke Key-ster thinks is worthy of being the second most powerful politician in the country.

In fact Key-ster doesn't see anything wrong with how Pigeon English and the rest of his glad handing self servers make money at your and my expense. His excuse that his ministers often worked 18-hour days for six or seven days a week, is just a crock. What he sees as "exceptional" is just normality for many of us, and we don't get to de-stress (read: loosen up that crinked neck from sleeping in Parliament) over a slap up meal and a glass of brandy on the taxpayers tab, and then be chauffer driven home.

I wouldn't waste my piss on those oxygen thieves if they were going up in flames.

Now just hang on a minute...what makes you think that this kind of rort hasn't been going on for years, under either party and every administration?
Just because it's in the news doesn't mean it's something new.
BTW - I agree it's disgusting. And needs to stop. At least as long as I'm not an MP, that is...

[mister.koz]

The fact is people will take what they can when they can. Which party and which party leader seems to be running the government is quite irrelevant.

Take MMP for example, the idea was to splice the government up into parties quantitative of the votes supplied - good idea right? Keep the balance with the votes. The downside is that there can be coalitions so parties get better ratios for votes by making agreements with other parties to back them.

Its schoolyard antics vindicated, "I'll accept your 1 idea if you back my 10, if you don't then you wont get a say in anything and we will actively discredit you"

The romantic point of government is to lead/run a country for the ideals and purposes of continuing a balanced society but each member of that parliament is given opportunity to take without the risk of attack.

The problem lies in the heart, rectitude is only for those who are watched under a microscope. You can pack on law's left right and centre and investigate everyone in the world but all you do is drive people to become more corrupt and find better ways to take what they can.

The solution is far simpler - make the job of being a politician or leader the benefit, not what they can take through tertiary benefits.

this is making the rounds recently ......




An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama’s socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer.

The professor then said, “OK, we will have an experiment in this class on Obama’s plan”. All grades would be averaged and everyone would receive the same grade so no one would fail and no one would receive an A. After the first test, the grades were averaged and everyone got a B. The students who studied hard were upset and the students who studied little were happy.

As the second test rolled around, the students who studied little had studied even less and the ones who studied hard decided they wanted a free ride too so they studied little. The second test average was a D! No one was happy.


When the 3rd test rolled around, the average was an F.

The scores never increased as bickering, blame and name-calling all resulted in hard feelings and no one would study for the benefit of anyone else.

All failed, to their great surprise, and the professor told them that socialism would also ultimately fail because when the reward is great, the effort to succeed is great but when government takes all the reward away, no one will try or want to succeed.

Could not be any simpler than that.

Remember the scams by Labour’s Marian Hobbs and Phillida Bunkle from the Alliance who were claiming such expenses, despite both being Wellington based MP with homes in Wellington.

Bunkle did it by claiming her primary residence was a bach just north of the Wellington boundary, and Hobbs claimed her primary residence was in Christchurch, despite having stood for Wellington Central.

So there is no honour on either side of the house.

Mind you, how many of us would give up a paid benefit from our employer? We are quick to blame politicians but many kiwis have their hands out so long as someone else pays.

No. It ends in the back of a container truck heading for the UK. There they can claim benefits for kids they have back home and further drain the economy.
