• Incompetence, greed, and lack of care for New Zealand

    From Rich80105@3:770/3 to All on Thursday, November 17, 2016 23:14:28
    The shameful effects of the governments poor investment choices,
    underfunding of government services, and just sheer waste of money, is
    leading to problems everywhere:

    Meanwhile, Key talks of making repairs after the earthquakes through
    capital wherever possible (so that the deficit will be minimised), and
    giving more tax cuts to the top earners!

    By the time of the next election we will be saddled with millions more
    debt, and Key can retire to Hawaii . . .

    This happened in 2007 under Labour: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10447365
    "A frail, elderly lady lies on a trolley in a corridor at North Shore Hospital,
    clutching her handbag. She is plainly ill and uncomfortable. There are around 30 similar patients in cubicles and another five parked in the corridor, including a young woman
    who came in an hour ago with severe abdominal pain."

    This happened in 2007 under Labour: http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10421381
    "More than 35,000 people were removed from elective surgery waiting lists in one year - far more than previously disclosed - in the Government's "clean-up" of its hospital rationing system."

    This happened in 2006, under Labour: http://www.stuff.co.nz/national/health/78698068/174-000-Kiwis-left-off-surgery-waiting-lists-with-Cantabrians-and-Aucklanders-faring-worst
    "174,000 Kiwis left off surgery waiting lists, with Cantabrians and Aucklanders
    faring worst"

    All while the world was enjoying the biggest economic boom in a generation.

    There are far, far more elective procedures carried out now than under Labour, and the health budget has never been higher.

    Here's the facts, Dickbot, but as a lying little propagandist you won't want to
    look: http://www.health.govt.nz/new-zealand-health-system/health-targets/how-my-dhb-performing/how-my-dhb-performing-2015-16/health-targets-2015-16-quarter-4-results-summary

    He's talking about giving tax cuts to everyone. But don't let the facts get
    in the way of a rant.

    come on JohnO! That's just dirty politics mate! Hitting Rich with facts
    about Labours mismanagement are just outside the pale. Rich was
    bullshitting about National because he just can't bear thinking about
    Labours monumental failures like KiwiBank, KiwiRail and KiwiSaver all of
    which have been sucking the life out of taxpayer funds and will for
    years to come.

    Why would a simple fact like that prevent Rich from yet another stupid
    ramble? It's never slowed the moron down before....
