1383648 2014-09-12 00:38:00 National leader John Key said the gaming industry is "really important" but he didn't think it necessary to put money in the way the Greens propose.
"It should be able to stand on its own two feet and most software companies do," he said
Pretty much. If the idea is solid, it'll fly, without Govt intervention.

Problem is that many are not, and this is why so many Kickstarter / Indiegogo ideas and games fail, because people have no idea what they're getting themselves into.

A farming based economy is always going to be 3rd world....thats why the country cant afford its spending levels & has to borrow.
And yes, its easy to make all sorts of election promises when theres no chance of getting into power & having to actually implement them.

1383651 2014-09-12 03:45:00 Good grief, the Greens aren’t a Political Party, they are a Religion posing as a Political Party.

Like all Religions, they have successfully used indoctrination to dupe the gullible.

If it wasn’t for having to take a substantial pay cut, I’m sure Bishop Tamati would have been right up front in the Greens. :D

This sort of nonsense is why I'm not voting for the right-wing...

We put a huge amount of money into politicians, elections, parliament etc. and that has been a total failure of late, wouldn't you think we would learn something from that?

Unfortunately Politicians fail to realise that a non-vote, or a destroyed vote is actually a ringing endorsement for "None Of The Above".

Well if you want to believe and support a whole lot of unsubstantiated nonsense then that is your prerogative. :groan:
