Comments on: Dear Labour, Greens & NZ First – you’ve whimped out on CGT, meaningful welfare reforms, censored Maori voices from mental health & wont interview Afghan survivors from our war crimes but sweet Jesus if you deny us legal weed I’m going to loose my shit

In reply to Peter. I do not think it is a coincidence that worker-insecurity and drug use and suicide began early it's epic 40 year rise in the statistics after the introduction of Rogernomics. These are not natural events like a hurricane that occurs in everyday life. These events are man made events with intelligent design, created by the system. It would be evil of us to continue being ignorant of a system designed to punish.

labour called their members and sent emails to ask if they supported the CGT and obviously they didn’t which is why they dumped the policy simple as that. (they didn’t have the mandate) I don’t know why people are making such a fuss lets move on to the next issue and next attempt at trying to implement fairness in our tax system.

In reply to CLEANGREEN. I think I understand what you say but what I sort of don’t get is believing in ‘Live and let live.’ Because I don’t take drugs and neither does my family (as far as I know), should I say of those in our community who are right into P, or P is right into them, that's their business ‘Live and let live’ ?

In reply to esoteric pineapples.

Yep
1975 mentality.
John Wayne and Elisabeth Taylor and Elvis are still alive.
PS
Oh We lost the war in Vietnam but lets not talk about that or Agent Orange legacy we left behind.
Bring back Sid Going and Colin Meads

This annoys me to hell – but New Zealand is such a conservative country with a vast amount of its population still living in 1975, that I can’t say it comes as a surprise

In reply to Aaron.

There is a book coming soon
OUT OF THE INFERNO
It will be available via this blog site
A novel of course – but demonstrates well your concern about Who Rule this great country of ours.

“Controlled by–”
Yup it happens. Controlled by The burocrats.
And they are excessively influenced by America.
Take Bugs Burgess who commanded the dot com raid.
Trips our burocrats make to the defender of the free world where they learn about terrorism in all shapes and forms
*trade protection
*anti China
*anti Russia
*CIA
*Freidman economic theory
*Pharmaceutical mafia
*Military alliance
The problem is when MP’s are captured by the burocrats who report to them.
And not many MPs have the brains and the balls to stand against the tide.
Auntie Helen did when the Yanks unlawfully invaded iraq 2003.
But that was an exception.

In reply to RED BUZZARD.

10000% Mary _A You hit the nail on the head there.

Jacinda is to timid and scarred to make such a derision there.

She plays one against the other you can bet this.

I don’t take drugs neither does my family but i believe in ‘Live and let live’

The doctor BIG Pharma lobby would prefer to doll out opioids and kill old New Zealanders off imo for things like fibromyalgia

….big corporate money and vested interests are against cannabis homegrown and do it yourself cannabis product medication and CBD oil

…it is nothing less than corruption and murder …they should be held to account
