The Daily Blog Open Mic – 21st February 2023
Announce protest actions, general chit chat or give your opinion on issues we haven’t covered for the day.
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.
EDITORS NOTE: – By the way, here’s a list of shit that will get your comment dumped. Sexist language, homophobic language, racist language, anti-muslim hate, transphobic language, 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.
How repetitive is this – and does any decision for reasonable change follow?

Store this stuff next door to offices and board rooms of corpses and near the wasp-hive in Wellington.
Farmers will be in need. They get their own Minister and funds to help. They also are committing suicide, so perhaps the help needs to be accessible before disasters.

Ordinary people have been getting hit by the government in many ways and have needed help for a long time. They should have a fund that they can apply to so they can improve their situation. It would be a grant for a project, and not repayable, not a loan. If successful and carrying the people especially family, out of difficulties to a more hopeful situation with pklan for the near future years, they could then apply for some free tertiary education. Doesn’t matter what race or ethnicity of permanent citizen, but there would be quotas so all can have a go, or go on to waiting lists. Let’s try to be an opportunities country not a deficiency one.
Change name of loser, redundant, defunct department! WINZ out. GAESINZ in – (Generating Active Entrepreneur Support and Income NZ/AO) – probably will be dubbed GAS for short, in a good way, or kidded about ie gays…
Some people won’t give a good return, but it won’t be a piece of cake for them after, they will have to turn in some solid results of working for a set amount of time before any more ideas got listened to. There will be set case managers who will receive bonuses for success and encouraging words for each person whose lives improve. And there will be a right for people to move to another case manager if agreeable to both.
Hard nuts may be passed along to a police unit that oversees them into some skill or work experience, or teachers them to read and helps them in a personal project; achievement in their lives. A change from frowning and hating attitude between police and miscreants eh.
