501379 2006-12-09 06:37:00 .So what I expect from you Cic, is to buy the book, grit your teeth, and no matter how distasteful it may be for you to read something written by a 'blackguard', digest, and then present cogent rebuttals.

The fact is that Brash has done what I would have done,the more difficult the question the less people know the answer.
So what is one to do,people who see things from your point of view(leftie)are never going to see the truth and the light as per Rogenomics.One therefore has to say one thing,then do another so as to be able to implement that which would benefit the country.
I will reduce Hager from blackguard to twit in deference to your sensitivity.

I think the light must have blinded you and if you think using devious means to govern a country is alright then we have reached a very sorry state of affairs.

The majority of people like you,believe that this controlled riddled system is the way to go.
If this system were implemented in Hong Kong,rest assured we would all die of starvation.
With a huge amount of the population addicted to hand outs,how are you going to change things?
Stealth I think is the only way.

While I am no commie I also have the intelligence to realise that Rogernomics is not the way to go unless you happen to one of the ones that make a killing at other peoples expense.
As for the starvation comment the World Bank is probably more responsible for starvation in the world than any other reason by making third world countries grow crops for completely commercial reasons and so sustainable food growing in those regions has suffered.
I do agree that there are way to many handouts without the neccessary controls to make sure only the truely needy get them.

I've never voted for that dyke in my life or Labour for that matter.

501385 2006-12-11 12:00:00 The amazing thing with politics appears to be that regardless of which party gets in, the most vociferous are disgruntled.
I suppose that's fair.

There was/is nothing remarkable about Rogernomics . It is basic free-market economics where government rules with a light hand and people are freed from rules and regulations to live their own lives . Reagan and Thatcher implemented these policies before Roger Douglas was heard of . And the standard of living in both the US and Britain has grown markedly in the past 20 years .

An interesting thought and I don't know enough to disagree . However the reason the World Bank encourages crops and industries which provide money for a nation is that the Bank has lent our money to that nation in the first place . The loans/grants are to help third world nations .

There are a couple of problems however - one is that the First World countries (but not NZ) impose trade barriers which mean that a farmer in Georgia can sell cotton, whereas a farmer in Kenya producing cotton at a quarter of the cost, still can't sell it at a profit . Weird huh??!!

The other problem is population expansion in the countries which can least afford to educate and feed their populations . There is something ironic when the richest nations on the planet have close to zero population growth and the poorest are expanding every minute .
