    True, took me 38 years to finally ask the question as to how it all works. As long as there's lots of money, she'll be right ... oh, and monsanto to cover the dying fields. Everytime I learn of one of these monster organisations I'm always left concerned at how these entities can be allowed to practice what they do, unchallenged, and the manner in which they go about doing it. The best part of it? They are revered as being successful.

    Awwwwwww, that's nice. Is that in the context of the thread, where neglected kids need looking after by society, or just generally?

    You could still enjoy those things. Would you swap the $$$ for more time to cruise in chaps, eat KFC spicy chicken & shoot stuff?

    Me too.

    I guess the other stuff is just too expensive to allow such luxuries...

    You woulda thought it'd be a good thing given that food is fuel for leaning minds... or so they keep saying. I guess the bad parents don't want their kids to learn nuffink.

    He's just a brainless pleb paid a pittance by the ruling class to protect their property rights. Ignore him...he thinks he's getting a good deal.

    Besides, poverty leads to crime which keeps him in a "career"

    heh heh heh... I think he's funny too Every man has his price.

    That's no bad thing really... coz, in the current system, if the doughnut industry collapses civilisation (savagery) as we know it, would descend into absolute chaos.

    Why so you can then fail/fall back on some sort of ad hominem attack?



    Why don't you just mind you own fucking business. You have revealed the kind of ignornant scum (tm) you are a number of times through your racist comments - that's all the information about you I care to know.

    Interesting that you feel the need to jump in on behalf of Cuntstable Scum - you obviously subscribe to my view that he hasn't got the brainpower to defend himself.

    He expressed his I'm 'alright jack' attitude in a thread discussing the plight of society's most disempower (children in poverty) and got called on it....sooooo whassyerproblem?

    how about you put your big boy pants on and answer the question, instead of throwing the racist tag out, scummy is entitled to his opinion same as you are same as i am and im sure he can defend himself if he feels the need to, i managed to feed my own children and im sure scumdog fed his kids as well, how about you???

    no. but i do remember georgie pie. if ever there was a one dollar pie to be had when you're hungover as fuck, it was a steak and cheese at georgie pie.
    i think we need to run McDs out of NZ (there goes half the obesity problem in south auckland (get rid of KFC and there goes the other half!) - and they're a US MNC - FTW!!) and bring back georgie pie.

    f*ck that shit. teach the little fuckers to lay a hangi then give em spades and put em to work.
    all these soft "hygenic" BS rules.
    many schools are putting in gardens... they're heading the right direction (but O LAWDY! i hope dey don' get dey hands dirtay like dem negroes!)

    Their dead beat parents are a totally different story and shouldn't enter into how kids are treated by society as a whole.
    (sorry to disappoint, but they don't polish their own arses. they pay someone to do it. (with your taxation))

    ... fuck i'd love a 7 series BMW.

    i actually think teachers should be paid double or triple what they currently get, with results expected. this would attract performers to the field, and hence create actual improvements in the education system.
    yes but we couldn't POSSIBLY pay the TEACHERS more... then we couldn't afford the police loans scheme. and of course enforcing policy (and propping them who do into houses, boats, cars etc) is way more important than educating the sheep (or paying paramedics, or fire/rescue services, apparently)
    i think there is a spark of hope in human nature. but your society has come a LONG way from it.

Or better still, going by the theory that reducing someone's finances increases their motivation we should tax the poor more than the rich. I mean, there's nothing stopping someone earning millions of dollars/year is there? Other people have done it so why should the rich subsidise the slackers who can't be arsed getting off their crappy $50k/yr salaries and earning some real coin?

    Yup, lets jack up the tax rate for those on less than $50k, if that doesn't motivate them nothing will......lazy fuckers should think of their children before sitting around feeling happy as pigs in poo, how are they gonna put them through uni on that sort of bullshit money? Maybe we should start paying them in education vouchers to make sure the lazy bastards actually look after their kids instead of blowing it on golf club memberships and motorbikes.

    Then there's superannuation......the fuckers will have their hands out 'til the day they bloody day, leaching the lifeblood out of thecountry, expecting those who're smart enough to actually put food on the table and a 'Benz in the garage to fork out again and a bloody again. Fuck'n losers, they shouldn't receive a cent until the earn more than $70k/yr, the rest they can have in food/education vouchers and super contributions. The mongrel's breed like rabbits too, so give 'em 10 years in the workforce and if they can't bring in $100k, sterilise 'em, no point having kids if they are already a drain on society....
    have some comic sans.
    i think most of that is beyond the scope of this thread.

    women say the bank. men know they work to get it in the bank.

    but it's all just numbers. a big maths game. like sudoku, but with more kids starving to death.

    They have their hands out because the gubbinment has had their hand in the worker's wallet all of their working life. No choice in the matter either!

    you lot are crapping on about the beneficeries taking all your hard earned tax dollars and yet you seem quite happy to hand them over to businesses. Lets take the money off the poor kids and give it to the owners of McDonalds stores etc.

    Sound far fetched and crazy?

    Imagine a country where a kid lands a job before having to resort to accepting a payment from WINZ but to get the job the employer still requires them to register with WINZ. When taking the job the kid makes it clear that they intend that they want to advance their education. When it comes time to do something about it and they go to talk to the employer about reduced hours so they can have some income and time to study they are told the hours can't be reduced as the employer would loose their WINZ benefit. The employer needs the staff but wont employ them unless they get their share of your tax dollars. The scheme was meant to create employment not subsidize existing, wealthy businesses. That is NZ for you, enjoy it, the poor go hungry and the workers subsidize the wealthy. while you can still afford it and are allowed to.
