This is why citizens wishing to have a vote in our democracy must have to do some basic study about a nation&#039;s required systems, have an avowed passion for the good of NZAO, and have taken part in some advancement process.  

At present there is a light-minded attitude to responsibility to the country.   Those who won&#039;t go through the process can have a sort of national service every two years where they do something requiring grunt workers, not too onerous but not just pleasing themselves.  It would make a difference to the attitude of those in all political parties also elsewhere.  And NZs would be given priority for jobs here, if they had sat the tests, and worked in the nation service teams.]]></description>

This in Epsom, isn&#039;t that David Seymour&#039;s territory, is a monument to the neolib money- hungry grab of NZ reeling from rich and probably overseas, metawealth gatherers.  All of NZAO is a possible target for this while we are at the behest of these hollow people who can never be filled because of their fervent, fevered, diseased brain process.]]></description>
