| 1337374 | 2013-04-19 03:22:00 | Well,I kind of like 'sleepy'...But if you think we need more people, let us have a wider selection of people, ie not all of one ethnic background and then lets not let them all settle in one suburb or city.Spread them around a bit. Back when there was large numbers of Dutch immigrants,they were split up and they did not have the chance to form 'Little Holland'. They had to assimilate,after all lets not make the 'Kiwi' as we know him an endangered species. Yes I agree with that, we need lots more good people and we need them to spread out, not sure how you do that though as the world wide trend is towards living in big cities. |

| 1337375 | 2013-04-19 03:26:00 | Cheese Digby. How is our country (not yours apparently) going to become more extinct? With your inspired plan it is going to become an anthill, already an oversupplied commodity. We have to have a Prime Minister I suppose. We should each put in 2c a year to pay him. I know it's more than he's worth, but we can be a bit generous. CEOs to be paid entirely by optional customer and staff donation; that should sort out who is worth what. More people using that single Ak/Wgtn road. More people fighting for the mite of bandwidth on overpriced offer from Telecon. Importers will obviously be scrambling to sell to the lowest bidder, just like they always have. ;) Not only manufacturers will have bigger runs (Toilet paper production will be our biggest industry). Companies become bigger, - and all on that single road? Artists will do what artists do: not a lot in an anthill. Singers worthy of the name are extinct already. Sleeping will be in shifts in your utopia. ;) So do you want to keep things as they are ? slow and sleep and dear ? Or do you want them to get slower and sleepier ? As for toilet paper, we do make a lot of it, but they also import a lot from Australia, I don't know why. Ask any singer or entertainer if it is easy making a living in NZ with a market of only 4 million. |

| 1337377 | 2013-04-19 05:43:00 | There was only one tv model available the Philips K9. Bollocks! Mono TV had more makes and models than you could shake a stick at (somewhere around 40-50 brands). Colour TV started with Philips, Pye, Bell, Golden Knight, Majestic, Thorn, Murphy, AWA, and Sanyo. Was not that enough choice for you? Cheers Billy 8-{) |

More jobs for builders, retail staff, truck drivers etc etc. |

The answer is to deport immigrants or anyone not born here that only wants to only to live in Auckland and Christchurch. Living in the one congested city and the broken city should be a privilege for NZ born people only. |
