The 2017 Election Thread

I hope you're having them invoice you for that coffee in accordance with your Standard Terms of Purchase of Goods and Services? So that you can process their (somewhat bizarre) request for payment appropriately, in the fullness of a time somewhat removed from this exact moment but not less than three calendar months from the (unfortunately) delayed receipt and (understandably) convoluted processing of such. Along with the standard pro-forma offer of a suitably secured loan to tide them over until that happy event might eventually transpire?

Sounds similar to the 10 step process I have to follow to spend money involving at least 5 different countries.....outsourcing....meh.

[husaberg]

Which differs from any other sort of productive industry how?
Yeah, in exchange for cash, which is sort of the point of the whole exercise.
Godit, city slicker bad, salt of the earth cocky good. Obvious now that you've pointed that out.
Which is really really weird, it's almost like most people live in cities. Bizarre.
Yeah, people should learn that simply purchasing assets doesn't mean they actually own them, or should expect expect any return from them at all. Capitalist pricks, eh?

It difers in in importance for earning NZs export income.
It differs in it total sustainability. ie since modern man became modern man we have been farming to feed ourselves.

You have a tiny % of NZ population earnign all the export revenue from rural areas.
As you state most live in the cities but the cities on balance are just consumers of good in NZ.
Yet you claim the cities are more important which is laughable at best.
Not on the list is tourism which now earns for foriegn income than dairy and guess what people dont come to NZ to see the cities either.

1. Dairy, eggs, honey: US$10.2 billion (27.6% of total exports)
2. Meat: $4.7 billion (12.7%)
3. Wood: $3.3 billion (9%)
4. Fruits, nuts: $1.9 billion (5.1%)
5. Beverages, spirits, vinegar: $1.4 billion (3.7%)
6. Fish: $1.1 billion (3.1%)
7. Cereal/milk preparations: $1.1 billion (2.9%)
8. Machinery including computers: $978.6 million (2.6%)
9. Modified starches, glues, enzymes: $884.6 million (2.4%)
10. Miscellaneous food preparations: $873.2 million (2.4%)

but dont worry just keep spouting on how much the rest of NZ needs cities and Auckland stupid idiots in cities like you will believe it.
Yet everythng from the food you eat to the electricity you use the water you drink to the air you breath is a product of rural areas.

Oh dear, dealt with Fonterra before have you ? The experience would tend to reinforce the prejudices you evince.

[jasonu]

I go to Fonterra's head office once a week in Auckland.

They do a very nice cappuccino with cinnamon and the carrot cake with chocolate is very tasty and all for less than $15 !!!!

Cripes $15 for a cuppa and a slice??? I assume that includes a reacharound.

Right up until their failure to meet the terms and conditions regarding payment by the end of the month following the invoice date printed on the back of my invoice for some $11000.

90 days be fucked.

They did eventually get their equipment back, but not before incurring 11 days loss of production for plant normally earning $47k per day.

The correct answer is "Not a fucking jot".

If you're going to attempt difficult, grown up conversation then learn to fucking read.

You cant have an adult conversation thats why you remove all the parts that dont suit your agenda. then post themin out of sequence.
All you do is moan on about labour this and labour that, like a broken record,, It like you seem to think your opinion is important when its clear not only is your opinion unimportant so was your tory vote.

Says the dude who edits his posts repeatedly for fucking hours. Maybe just let me know when you've finished editing your shit, so that I'll know exactly what it is I'm replying to, eh?

But to be fair I did leave out a bunch of shit from your last post. I thought I'd spare others further unnecessary exposure to the rancid stream of unfocused, festering, irrelevant resentment and put it out of it's misery.

There's a bunch of labour bullshit I don't comment on, just the idiotic, idealism driven crap with little chance of achieving it's stated objective. So socialist dogma, basically. And I've moaned about national's "progressive" bullshit too. Leave that shit out and I'll be positively glowing with ambivalence.

You, on the other hand just can't help yourself from blindly parroting a purely labour party ideological rhetoric. It's not rational behaviour, it's rationalistic behaviour. See if you can learn another trick, eh? try a different answer to the previous post. If you come up with something showing even a hint of addressing the topic I might even change my mind, which isn't something I expect you'll ever do.

You are full of it ocean
Left out a bit you replied to nothing in the post beat your chest and pattted yourself on the back.
your last reply had nothing to do with my post at all it was from a post a page back FFS
I posted stats and home truths.
So where are all the Nat supporters now that were claiming to be outraged about the current goverments travel costs.
Especially now that it turns out they have spent 1/2 million less on travel costs then National did 12 months previously.
I guess its the same clowns that are ignoring Simon Bridges latest press conference stuff up
How embarrasing was that.

To be fair not every self made men get to start out straight out of school with a small loan of 140 million dollars

“It has not been easy for me,” Trump, as a presidential candidate, said at a town hall in New Hampshire in October 2015. “I started off in Brooklyn. My father gave me a small loan of a million dollars. I came into Manhattan, and I had to pay him back, and I had to pay him back with interest. But I came into Manhattan and I started buying properties, and I did great.”
According to the Times’ reporting, Fred Trump loaned his son at least $140 million in today’s dollars. Most of it was never repaid.
“Rich men are less likely to like me, but the working man likes me because he knows I worked hard and didn’t inherit what I’ve built.”
“By age 3, he was earning $200,000 a year in today’s dollars from his father’s empire. He was a millionaire by age 8. In his 40s and 50s, he was receiving more than $5 million a year,” the Times wrote.
In all, Trump is said to have received the equivalent today of at least $413 million from his father.

Yeah, he's a bellend & labour need to up their travel spend.
Dude, I had a count up of all the vehicles, trailers & bikes I'm responsible for the smooth running of, it scared me a bit. I not at leisure to come & argue mute points on here just willy nilly.
Lovely spot he's had his pic taken at though. Just down the road from my place.
What do you think of the continuing fuel price hikes? Awesome effort Liarbour, I'm loving my 4.8 litre X5 at the mo, might have to trade it for a 4.7 litre Aston Martin to save some dough on petrol.
Seriously though, they're a bit like destiny church, taking the absolute piss out of the very people that voted for them, broken ass mofo's that could barely afford the PAYE they were paying only for it to be given back to them the following week under the name of some kind of govt support or benefit.
