NZ most socially advanced country - report

[rustyrobot]

Well, blow me down - despite all of our ranting, raving and frothing at the mouth here on Kiwibiker - NZ ranks as the most socially advanced country. Just whose fault is that then?

The SPI defined social progress as: "The capacity of a society to meet the basic human needs of its citizens, establish the building blocks that allow citizens and communities to enhance and sustain the quality of their lives, and create the conditions for all individuals to reach their full potential."

Well fuck off back to that wonderful country you came from then ...

But seriously (and don't take that random reaction personally Chris .. just as I know you didn't really mean it ...) I'm not surprised at all. This country remains the best place in this fucked up world to live ...

18th in the Basic Human Needs category eh. Guess that's why we're 25th in terms of GDP.

But seriously (and don't take that random reaction personally Chris .. just as I know you didn't really mean it ...) I'm not surprised at all. This country remains one of the most expensive when referring to every day living necessities like meat, milk, cheese, beer, cigs, petrol in this fucked up world to live ...

Fixed it just for you XXXXX

Someone must have held the graph the wrong way around!

How they hell does anyone measure that?

In all seriousness though, I am very happy that I live here and not still in the UK. I often come accross fellas that have not lived elsewhere in the world. So many things are taken for granted her that are either not available or dont happen anywhere else.

NZ.......the worlds best kept secret!

What's wrong with the UK? Too many ragheads and niggers? Or just too expensive?

It's full of white muthafuckas. Turns out NZ is rapidly following suit. Shame really.

It's full.

Only the lumpy bits have not been developed for Council estates & they get rained on most of the time. The rest of the time it's snowing.

Oh. The speed cameras are contracted out to private companies. They get commission..

Chavs.

Whingers & moaners.

The Chawners.

Give it 15 years and apart from daylight saving there wont be any difference between here n there.

Overflowing, in fact...

... to good ol NZ.

We should probably put them in special camps, like the Aussies do.

Acoustically isolated ones.

Until they can stump up with the airfare back to where they came from.

[slofox]

Hmmm...if I believe that, then I can only conclude that the rest of the world is fucked.
