FUD equals, Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt.

MisterE posted an excellent treatise on this method of gaining attention.

We need to get the public, the cagers on the side of, Screw ACC Levies. Not just for bikers, but for everyone being Forced to pay extra.

Adding to that is the following idea.

What say you printed off 100 pages of the following. You get four to a page. Then slice up the fliers and go spend an hour putting them under the wipers of 400 cars. If a thousand of us did this then 400,000 of the same message would get across.

If you don't like the message, then make up your own....but believe me, don't ask the cagers to support bikers. You have to go at their soft spots.

Here's the flier I'm going to put under the wipers of 1,000 cars.

It’s A Scandal

Why Are You Subsidising cyclists who pay no ACC?

Why are you subsidising Rugby players who pay no ACC?

Did you know that ALL registered road users claimed just $480 million last year, but cyclists and Rugby players claimed a massive $2.8 billion! They didn’t pay any EXTRA levy.

Do you know you pay ANOTHER levy? YES! 5.8 cents per litre to ACC!

So why are you being forced to pay these EXTRA levies when the rest DON’T??

And why is the Government putting them UP by 50%?

IT’S A RIP-OFF! A SCANDAL! ANOTHER TAX GRAB!

....Do you know you pay ANOTHER levy? YES! 5.8 cents per litre to ACC!....

That should read 9.9 cents per litre

Nothing moves till it's made to. Momentum is created by a million small efforts. Look at how ants operate and cooperate. They move relative mountains, each, one-by-one.

So do your bit. Protest. Write, submit opinion, write to the media, put fliers out, talk to workmates.

Every tiny bit is one more which gets in the face of those who want to be voted back in. Their fear is, they won't be. Help build that fear, tiny step by tiny step.

You can join every party but National. You don't have to agree with the party-line. But joining increases their membership. They crow about that. That shit gets in the faces of the National.

At the moment National thinks folk are wandering around saying, 'We ahil National. We Hail National!'

Wrong. They're starting to say, 'We Hate National. We Hate National!'

Help feed the fear. Do SOMETHING other than just post here.
