Blaze, open your eyes and look around, the majority of people here aren’t so stupid as to buy into the shit you pedal, fuck off back to the loonies at the standard if you need people who agree with you, that ship of fools will buy everything you are selling.

1 in 3 kids in NZ are not in poverty, it’s fucking lies and statistics. Not to mention a blight on those who say it and trivialise those who are in poverty.

No, that kind of (non)humour does not entice a chuckle from me; neither does the PM trivialising sexual offences, including his own.

And I am very relaxed, thanks, kicking back and watching cricket, expecting a comfortable win. Soon to head off for a paddleboard excursion. Wash away Kiwiblog pollution.

Jumping on this bandwagon as well are we, well why not it seems to be quite in flavour amongst the left at the moment.
Good luck with all your other activities planned but take a spare 10c piece so if you come across a child poverty chugger you can make a donation from all the deniers here at Kiwiblog.

….”to continue to deprive children on account of the supposed sins of their parents is unjust and counterproductive. “….

Sort of begs the question of what conduit to use to support these deprived kids knocking on Death’s door…..should they exist outside of Blaze’s head.

It would seem that any extra funds directed via their parents would be spent on more booze & more tobacco.

Or is this the outcome the socialists are seeking?

This is again an example of how you guys continue to wallow in ignorance and prejudice. There is no factual basis for that statement, but such is the depth of delusion on this blog that facts will always fail to convince.

The state of Florida, under Jeb Bush, I think, a few years back spent millions upon millions testing welfare recipients for drug use, the best kind of trial you can get, and found a lower use of recreational drugs and alcohol than in the general population.

And although in the US blacks and whites are almost equal in incidence of drug use, the vast majority of the quantity of drugs consumed in that blighted country is consumed by Whites, but blacks are jailed in overwhelmingly greater numbers for drug offences.

And we had a similar programme enacted under this government, which has proven an embarrassment both in terms of costs and results.

If your own governing party of choice finds no evidence to support your mindless parroting of propaganda of prejudice, then you are a lost cause.

Sheesh Shawn!

Do you believe in the tooth fairy as well?

Here – try some SCIENCE regarding 9/11 and the collapse of World Trade Buildings 1,2 and 7?
_________________________________________________

http://www.ae911truth.org

EVIDENCE

On September 11, 2001, the three worst structural failures in modern history took place when World Trade Center Buildings 1, 2, and 7 suffered complete and rapid destruction.

In the aftermath of the tragedy, most members of the architecture and engineering community, as well as the general public, assumed that the buildings’ destruction had occurred as a result of the airplane impacts and fires.

This view was reinforced by subsequent federal investigations, culminating in FEMA’s 2002 Building Performance Study and in the 2005 and 2008 reports by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

Since 9/11, however, independent researchers around the world have assembled a large body of evidence that overwhelmingly refutes the notion that airplane impacts and fires caused the destruction of the Twin Towers and WTC 7.

This body of evidence, most of which FEMA and NIST omitted from their reports, instead supports the troubling conclusion that all three skyscrapers were destroyed in a process known as “controlled demolition,” where explosives and/or other devices are used to bring down a building.

KEY EVIDENCE

Rapid onset of destruction,

Constant acceleration at or near free-fall through what should have been the path of greatest resistance,

Numerous eyewitness accounts of explosions including 118 FDNY personnel,

Lateral ejection of multi-ton steel framing members distances of 600 feet at more than 60 mph,

Mid-air pulverization of 90,000 tons of concrete, and large volumes of expanding pyroclastic-like dust clouds,

Isolated explosive ejections 20 to 60 stories below the “crush zone,”

Total destruction and dismemberment of all three buildings, with 220 floors each an acre in size missing from the Twin Towers’ debris pile,

Several tons of molten steel/iron found in the debris piles,

Evidence of thermite incendiaries on steel beams,

Nanothermite composites and iron microspheres found in WTC dust samples.

_______________________________________________________

There are a series of articles by AE911TRUTH – if you want to read more?

But, I guess if you’re into myths and fairy tales you probably won’t bother …..

(Meant of course in a caring way 😉

Nasska:

Have you seen this article?

Colander-wearing members of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster could soon be legally married in New Zealand after the church was approved to hold “Pastafarian” marriage ceremonies. Church adherents, who wear colanders on their heads, revere pirates and believe the universe was created by a flying noodle, have been recognised in New Zealand as a bone fide organisation.

According to the Registrar-General:

Registrar-General Jeff Montgomery, who approved the Pastafarians right to apply to be marriage celebrants, told Radio New Zealand it was “one of the more unusual” requests he has received but they met the conditions of the Marriage Act. “I have come to the view they do uphold or promote philosophical convictions and therefore are able to nominate marriage celebrants,” he said.

According to the Top R’Amen:

“We are a bone fide church and our people do like to get married, some of them several times,” she said. “We like to have baptisms and babies and celebrations and divorces and it’s always nice to have an official marriage celebrant to preside over these celebrations.”

Does that change your mind on religion Nasska?

….” testing welfare recipients for drug use”….. …… “and found a lower use of recreational drugs and alcohol than in the general population.”….

So? If we have to support them it’s not unreasonable to expect zero use of drugs, tobacco & alcohol. Welfare is a safety net, not a bloody hammock.

….”And although in the US blacks and whites are almost equal in incidence of drug use, the vast majority of the quantity of drugs consumed in that blighted country is consumed by Whites, but blacks are jailed in overwhelmingly greater numbers for drug offences.”….

I hate to burst your bubble but we & your imaginary deprived kids live in NZ….not the USA. In any case, although I am of the opinion that drug addictions are a medical matter rather than criminal, you would have to be dealing meth to get imprisoned under current NZ sentencing.

Bring on welfare payments via restricted debit cards.

Actually,social and economics research finds that empowering people to make their own decisions gets the best results. The example of the US was raised to highlight that generally ranters like you are informed by prejudice, not facts.

And the use of debit cards would be no problem, as with food stamps in the US, a blackmarket would thrive to supply people with cash for debits.

Cash is king, for the poor as well as the self-employed.

I think Penny will forget to appear, Nostradamus. She forgot to appear at the defamation hearing.(What happened to that by the way?)
Besides, she will be too busy explaining to the news media how she scuppered the TPPA and I imagine has already penned her request for a 12 month adjournment. No doubt she will want to go on a speaking tour of the USA warning that John Key is angling at taking control of the BoA.

….”Auckland Women’s is also a working prison, where prisoners are able to work in the kitchens or on the maintenance of the prison. It acts as a distribution centre for other prisons and can train in catering, barista and café work.

But with the added luxuries of pampering weekends, aerobics sessions, television rental for $1 a week, driving lessons and two seven-minute showers a day, is it too good? “…..

Ok Kiwibloggers – here’s a simple wee question to ask you?

If aircraft fuel is kerosene – the heat from which when burning, can purportedly cause multi- story steel framed buildings to collapse upon themselves – then how come when you light up your kerosene heater (the frame of which, as I understand it, is made from mild steel), it doesn’t just melt and collapse in a puddle?

Seriously folks – wakey wakey ….?

I’ve been busy at times, loading paddleboard, chasing Mr Whippy for the kids…I don’t read everything!

So, I’m not a social worker, just as when I write about wars, I’m not soldier and when I write about politics, I’m not a politician. I assume you get my drift.

As an economics major, I know that in the rich, western advanced economies, governments can and should solve this problem. National actually has exceeded my expectations, but those expectations were nil to begin with.

So demanding to know what I do personally is actually a red herring, a diversion from the issue at hand.

The best thing I can do is help to keep the pressure on governments to do what both humanity and economic theory demands – divert money from the wealthier, like myself, and redistribute it in some form to our poorer, probably via a combination of cash and programmes.

One way to exert pressure is voting. Another is give at least as well as I get on platforms that are in desperate need of informed comment – like this one.

It’s a nasty, messy job at times but, hey, someone has to do it!

Blazeoflight at 4.54 quoted somebody who wrote that;
“Any extra funds directed via their parents would be spent on more booze and more tobacco.”
Blazeoflight then went on to write that;
“There is no factual basis for that statement.”
Blaze, my wife argues that I spend too much time at the local rubbidy dub listening to the low lifes of society. I am one of those who listens. I do not make condescending comments to the low lifes. I keep those condescending comments to Kiwiblog, because I dislike getting my head shoved in, and that does not happen on Kiwiblog. I listen to them. I have seen other people with clip-boards noting the responses from the scum. As soon as a clip board comes out their comments change. I have seen and heard that.
Blaze will write my comments off as anecdotal, but they are what I have heard.
“Any extra finds directed via their parents will be spent on more booze and more tobacco.”

Sadly I have to agree. My real concern is that if she doesn’t get the chance to destroy progress in Auckland she may very well venture south. She has, after all, only today express disgust that the councils making up the Canterbury Region are cooperating and making progress.

Maybe she will just head as far as Wellington. She tell us that she is a real hero there and she won’t be far away from publicpuppy watch, either.

Awww C-mon

@blazeofbullshit. As an economics major you are still an arse with no integrity. Come here and bleat about things while sitting on your arse. Sitting on KB talking shit doesn’t help a single one of those kids you talk about, you don’t influence shit.

tell you what Mr Economics major, as an uneducated no-one who has worked in the area of child poverty and benefit dependence, as a family who volunteers in the area still and gives financially to charities in the area of poverty, I am going to say you don’t know shit.

You are an ignorant fuck, over fed and unconcerned, despite your bullshit and dribble today which counts for squat. You are the problem not the answer.

Rant over, sorry to everyone else.

Although it was difficult to do, you had even less impact on Wellington politics than your various campaigns in Auckland.

Symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder
In order for a person to be diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) they must meet five or more of the following symptoms:

By that definition, Griff, you’ve described 83% of all teenagers in NZ 🙂

Griff.
Have been dealing with one of those for the last year.
Hard to recognise and many people would not have a clue even if someone close is exhibiting signs.
Dangerous too.

It’s ok Griff – I wouldn’t fret too much?

I for one don’t think you exhibit ‘Symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder’ – just think you haven’t yet learned to separate the person from the topic of the debate, and when you feel you’re losing, you just get a bit personal ?

Never mind.

Hopefully when you get a bit older and wiser – you’ll grow out of it?

Then again – seems that there are other Kiwibloggers – at a guess, mainly male – who still are struggling with the concept of debating the issues, without making derogatory remarks about those who hold a different viewpoint?

But not all Kiwibloggers understand the Libertarian principles of ‘freedom of expression’?

Yet?

Kind regards

When asked if eight years later, corporate America should still love her, Clinton replied, “Everybody should.”

‘freedom of expression’

Is that what Klarkula used when she slandered West Coasters as feral inbreds Penny Not So Bright?

@Griff: Were you describing Kim Dot Com or the Auckland bludger? It’s difficult to tell the difference between those two.

Really MM?

Run that past the Mayors of Lower and Upper Hutt and see what they say?

Anyone else noticed new left wing posters recently that have just graduated from troll school and trying to go solo on KB.

Iprent must be proud of them.

This from Tautuhi at the Stranded, i spelt my fucking coffee over the keyboard…..

“This is similar site to WhaleOil and KiwiBlog however the discussions on this website are generally more intelligent and articulate than the comments on the National Party Websites, which specialise in co-ordinated attack blogs in conjunction with MSM”.

“I would say the IQ of the people on this site would be higher than those at WhaleOil or KiwiBlog”.

I liked David Frum’s comment on Angela Merkel being named Time’s Person of the Year.

“She wrecked Schengen, elected LePen, and imported decades of social crisis into her own country: yes, Angela Merkel is woman of the year.”

Same vile ideology, same barbaric religion, same shit:
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-35144420

At least 15 rebel forces in Syria are ready to succeed so-called Islamic State (IS) if it is defeated by the US-led coalition, new research suggests.

The Centre on Religion and Geopolitics, linked to former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair, also says that 60% of the rebels could be classified as Islamists.

You mean you haven’t yet claimed credit for scuppering the TPPA? Oh dear. I must be getting ahead of myself. Still, I suppose its just a matter of time.

Nostradamus

It really is a mystery wrapped up in an enigma, isn’t it. I had quite forgotten that John Key had Bank of America Shares. I must be getting Brightagia, or is that amnesia?

Do you think that John Key rang his golfing buddy and pointed out that he had just realised that USA was monumentally screwed over and as a result his BoA shares were on the skids and could Barry get someone to spike the TPPA seeing as they are good mates? He may have even offered him a season’s free membership of the Colac Bay golf club.

It does seem incongruous that Penny accuses Key of selling us out by achieving a deal that some Americans are gagging on. It just gets curiouser and curiouser. Did you know that curiosity killed the cat? Do you think that that is how she gets her headgear?

MM

How many voters read that petition do you think? And did they all, spontaneously, change their minds and vote NO?

It appears to be over for Fiorina:
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/12/20/fiorina-slams-clinton-calls-trump-christmas-present-for-dems.html?intcmp=hpbt2

Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina slammed rival Hillary Clinton on Sunday, saying the Democratic front-runner has “gotten every single foreign policy challenge wrong.”

Fiorina, who appeared on “Fox News Sunday,” also took a shot at GOP candidate Donald Trump. “Donald Trump is a big Christmas gift wrapped up under the tree” for the Clinton campaign.

The future is not that bright for Europe:
https://ca.news.yahoo.com/europes-hell-may-presage-worse-come-091219811–business.html

By any measure, it has been a year from hell for the European Union. And if Britons vote to leave the bloc, 2016 could be worse.

Not since 1989, the year the Berlin Wall fell and communism crumbled across eastern Europe, has the continent’s geopolitical kaleidoscope been shaken up so vigorously.
