    The last set of posts are really all tied together. Relative to the old electricity Corp and solid energy and the way various politicians/accountants have played around it. As well as some events like Pike River and the world banking economy.

    Think about it.

    Anyway, it's time to ride...
    Auckland has a population of 1,495,000, which constitutes 32 percent of New Zealand's population.
    As for projected growth Auckland infastructure problems relating to growth should be paid for by Aucklanders.
    You are supposed to be the city of sails take a bloody ferry to work.

    City of Sails was an old Council slogan that probably cost a mill to come up with.

    The rest of the country is quite welcome to take all the immigrants but alas they seem to like being packed in like at home.
    Still as an investment the old bungalow has performed well
    DeMyer's Laws - an argument that consists primarily of rambling quotes isn't worth bothering with.

    Thats the problem most of the economic growth in Auckland is being fuelled by the housing bubble. Its not real nor can it last, its a pyramid scheme that is going to eventually topple.
    Maybe its time Auckland had a look at its future fundamentally it has little to offer as a tourist destination it has little natuaral resourcees of commercial value.
    Its great (south auckland was the best dairy land in the world)farming land has been eaten up in the urban sprawl.
    I can’t see large manufacturers beating down the doors to relocate there either.
    Don't it always seem to go. That you don't know what you've got til its gone. They paved paradise And put up a parking lot.

    The overhead conductors are steel and alumnium though.
    I stand corrected.

    aluminium, or aluminum for those that use the bullshit from the 'Land of the Free.'

    Not entirely sure the whole of NZ should be linked to the 'Back water Shit Hole' status because of the actions of one person.
    '' i'd let you touch me.''

    Sorry fulla but I am spoken for.
