The Editor doesn’t moderate this blog, 3 volunteers do, they are very lenient to provide you a free speech space but if it’s just deranged abuse or putting words in bloggers mouths to have a pointless argument, we don’t bother publishing.
All in all, TDB gives punters a very, very, very wide space to comment in but we won’t bother with out right lies or gleeful malice. We leave that to the Herald comment section.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist abuse, homophobic abuse, racist abuse, anti-muslim abuse, transphobic abuse, Chemtrails, 9/11 truthers, Qanon lunacy, climate deniers, anti-fluoride fanatics, anti-vaxxer lunatics, 5G conspiracy theories, the virus is a bioweapon, some weird bullshit about the UN taking over the world and ANYONE that links to fucking infowar.
0% pay offers, should they be outlawed?
If we really cared about people falling behind, shouldn’t wages automatically increase at the annual rate of inflation at the very least?
Government would be wiling to consider this; however that would require a thorough-going discussion and conference by Treasury, Reserve Bank, Inland Revenue Dept all the Bank Economists plus the free-floating ones, (and all the usual suspects), which could not release its findings until after the 2026 Election.
Government is not interested in protecting the poor abnd vulnerable to addiction or blather.

…”In some instances, Eagle Man charged an interest rate of 182.5 percent per annum, on top of credit and default fees. This could saddle consumers with significant debt that is more than the amount they borrowed,” she said.
It was the commission’s first case under the CCCFA. !!??
Under the CCCFA, lenders that offer loans with an interest rate of more than 50 percent were considered to be high-cost lenders and needed to meet specific requirements….
In actual it is a microcosm? of what NZAO is undergoing as a whole from the crazed wealthy plutocrats who can’t love what they are and have and be grateful for it and know when to say “ENUFF.”

The title is confusing. Just to reassure – the cyclone happened first, and the temporary village followed up, is standing and able to be used. Good news from bad – let us have more of this. Come on gummint you get paid enough to create many good outcomes. Be like Alice’s White Queen and think six impossible things before breakfast. And to ensure that you can’t be accused of being racist, whatever you do for one needy group, you turn and do for others on the same level.
