Penny Bright’s transparency and integrity

Self-appointed “public watchdogs” usually are uninformed Nostradamus. And very selective in who they watch. I wonder if Penny wants to offer a comment on proven tax evader Matt McCarten.

Last Election Penny voted for this man and his Party and said she would urge everyone she could to do the same.

To do that, knowing MCarten is there, is similar to paying rates knowing a small portion could be wasted or misdirected in some way.

That she can vote Labour with McCarten there but not pay rates at the risk a small portion may be wasted, shows an inconsistency and a lack of integrity.

Definitely not suitable material for the office of Mayor, overseeing the expenditure of the rates of people who do pay them. 🙂

“….ACC has about $30 billion in investments. I would be surprised if they had not invested in a shopping center somewhere….”

Does anyone know the rules of investment with regards to ACC funds?

$30 billion invested into NZ – an economy which is around 1/5th the size of the NSW economy – is a lot of eggs in one basket. Whereas investment is about minimising risk!

In Aussie when Howard was PM nearly all superannuation funds had to be ‘re invested’ into Australian stocks ect, however it got to the point that the funds were so large that they were artificially forcing up the price of stocks ect creating risk, and thereby also keeping foreign investors out of the market due to lack of investment choices – so Howard and Costello then allowed for more of those funds to be invested overseas.

In other words — does a % of those ACC funds HAVE to be invested off shore?

College students being interviewed on the gender bathroom issue, have a bit more trouble answering why they shouldn’t believe the white, male interviewer is not a 6’5, Asian woman.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfO1veFs6Ho

Watch as the students struggle to explain why an adult male shouldn’t enroll in a first-grade class, why he’s not a woman, why he’s not substantially taller, or why he’s not Asian.

ACC has about $30 billion in investments.

Every cent of which represents an overcharge that should be returned by ceasing new fees until its used up.

Forward funding ACC is reprehensible. It was always intended to be a pay-as-you-go model with a mere buffer to make up any shortfalls arising from unexpected demand in an area that wasn’t covered by the previous year’s fees.

With our data modelling and forecasting capabilities today, doing that successfully and smoothly without disruption is a a no-brainer indeed they were quite successful for years and years even before IT came in.

So there was no problem, was there.

What the politicians decided to do was to use it as a contributor to NZ’s overall capital markets, since our capital markets are so appallingly abysmal because unlike overseas, we don’t have a significant demographic of people who want to invest in anything but the damn property market. Or many pension funds, like they have. In fact quite the opposite. So that’s why they decided to change the ACC model, without asking us, they just did it. But that’s why.

Of course its appalling. Why does a health insurer need to operate like a pension fund? What other health insurer anywhere in the world does that? No-one, of course. But ours does, because the income stream is free, why they just put in another request and lo, Cabinet tells Parliament to vote another fee increase, just like that. Hey presto, it’s a miracle. Now they can buy even more shopping centres, or a bank, or whatever. Thanks Parliament. Really appreciate that. Way to run the country, you mormons.

It’s still possible for Donald Trump to clinch the nomination by the end of the primaries on June 7. His path is narrow and perilous. But it’s plausible and starts with a big victory Tuesday in his home state New York primary.

From Inandout’s 6.15pm link:

…..”A takeaway chef wiped his bottom using his hands before preparing food because he does not use toilet paper for ‘cultural reasons’, a court heard.

Mahbub Chowdhury, 46, from Swindon, was found to have a filthy bottle in the kitchen of Yeahya Flavour of Asia, which inspectors concluded was covered in faecal matter.

When questioned, he said he filled the empty milk bottle with water from the kitchen taps before using it to clean his backside after going to the toilet.”…..

I reckon we could safely give this “cultural diversity” the lefties keep banging on about a miss. You can shove your kebabs where Mr Chowdhury aims his milk bottle.

“Of course its appalling. Why does a health insurer need to operate like a pension fund? ”
________________

Because it IS like a pension fund.

ACC has hundreds of thousands of short duration claims – e.g. I hurt my ankle and am off work for a week. If all the claims were like that, sure it could be funded from current levy income.

But ACC also has tens of thousands of long duration liabilities, some of which will last 50 years +. Those future liabilities are now (almost) fully funded without being a burden on future taxpayers (and future generations). And remember as survival rates from accidents improve, these 50 year + liability streams will grow as a proportion of total liabilities.

Having NZ Super unfunded is enough thanks very much.

Hillary’s “I’m Not a Crook” Moment

http://www.counterpunch.org/2016/04/13/hillarys-im-not-a-crook-moment/

People who pay more attention to sites than the content it offers will of course note CounterPunch is the international equivalent of The Stranded and yet, here it is, exposing Killary’s crimes for all to see.

Won’t you.

That shows how bad it is, doesn’t it.

Your world is falling apart, isn’t it.

I recommend you learn how to think properly, because you can now hardly turn around and specifically blame the author now that you’ve (and you know who you are) an established track record in citing the site as the authority, can you.

I always told you it was mental, but you wouldn’t listen.

Reid, now why would Clinton sell Uranium to Russia when it produces a lot of the stuff and can readily obtain more of it south of the border from the worlds leading producer , Kazakhstan ? ,

Are you totally unaware of globalisation?

Why does any large company endeavour to secure resources in more than one location?
http://www.uranium1.com/index.php/en/about-uranium-one

More questions to ask yourself:

Who owns Uranium One?
Where does it get its Uranium from?

You’re missing a couple of salient points pentwig:

1) If everyone had a right wing barrow to push then the blog would become as bland as “The Standard” where people toe the company line or are banned. Nothing gets challenged there & zillions of electrons are disturbed in creating echoes.

2) There’s a huge difference between trolling, (eg Blazeoflight & Gabby) & Mike’s stirring.

DPF doesn’t limit comment to that favourable to the National Party & doesn’t expect it from commentators.

Vive la difference!

General TV – Decades In Colour – another review – in real time.
This should be a lovely trip down memory lane looking at home film from yesteryear.
Instead – it’s a trip down social and political ‘problem issues’ of the past.
It’s just a load of whiny moaning shit. Like this review. But i’m not trying to tell you anything different – unlike the shitheads who put this crap together and said it’s nostalgia and then you watch it and it concentrates on bullshit and nothing else. Oh – this week it’s crap like Vietnam – the 70s road toll – hippy festival frollicking on stage naked – two very ordinary birds. Oooo – don’t flood Manapouri.

All that stuff is great – the point is – it *doesn’t* fit the bill. They’re saying ‘NZ nostalgia’. That is broad and general and should include everyday scenes and life. Not this 100% issue driven crap.

The “Mother Of The Nation” returns to our screens in this brand new local series that’ll take you on a colourful nostalgia trip through the 50s, 60s and 70s. The beauty of this series comes from the unique home videos that everyday kiwis (like yourselves!) have submitted and are willing to share. This was well before facebook, Instagram or Snapchat! It’s not a history lesson on those decades but rather a living snapshot of life in New Zealand, told by the people who were there. From small towns to the large cities, you get a real understanding of what life was like back in the day. This is a must watch for the whole family!

The mother of all conjobs is what this is. The video is fantastic. The commentary is fucked. It’s badly put together. It’s all over the place. There you go. Ah look at all this cool video – choice. Um – hmmm – what to do ? We’ll add some stupidity to it – a bit of a pointless duh-duh narrative. Infomercials have got more going for them. Greenstone and NZ On Air – you suck.

The fact that I respect MM’s right to comment ( and appreciate his humour) does not mean that I agree with his politics.

Given that you so frequently resort to ad hom argument I have to agree with MM’s observation that you do go unarmed into a battle of wits. You are becoming a bit like Dad and Starboard, both of whom, I suspect, are counselled to rage on KB as some kind of therapy. Let the anger go, Pentwig. It wont hurt and you may become enlightened.

It’s Hone bashing time . . .
LRC is watching a bit of Q&A on state TV – they discussed the dog issue.
The formula is interview some nerd and then get a response from three guests in the studio.
This will be interesting – what is old Hone going to opine – I mean it’s fuckin dogs – where’s he going to stand on dogs ?

He started waffling on about pig dogs and living in a rural area with pig dogs and this is how people get their food source so they need them. They can jump high fences. Something about putting down all pig dogs. One day a pig dog killed his chickens. What if that was my mokopuna ? So I warned them and then had to kill the pig dog next time. ?? That’s good to know . . . ????

What a useless non-answering no opinion say nothing air-wasting drongo.

Before that they had on someone I didn’t quite recognise – brown fella – boy he was hard to listen to. Inarticulate – had trouble stringing words and sentences together. I tried for a while to keep going and then gave up and muted the prick. What a load of buzz speak tight-rope talking nonsense. It turned out to be Mother O’Sullivan – a GP from a third world country called Kaitaia. New Zealander or the year 2014. Yeah – well it sure wasn’t for his outstanding grasp of the English language. Being a Maori doctor (well – part-time Maori – part Maori – whatever) having a good income / wealth is uncool. Better have ten children to stay poor and keep street cred. Kids will have nothing to inherit and no financial help option.

And just to prove a point I thought I’d ride that dumbed down achieve nothing programme right to the bitter end – full ad break followed by last three minutes of content. Ads longer than the end. Look – I knew that. I wouldn’t bother unless going to type about it. Who do they think wants to wait out 4 mins of ads to see 3 mins of crap ? What’s the point in reading a couple of random social media blurbs ? If you’re into social media – you’ll go online and see ten million bullshit lunatic unfair worthless opinions. That’s one minute wasted paying lip service pointlessly to some random meh’s duh-duh fucking Twitter stupidity.

Here’s a cool idea – go to South Auckland and interview some of these charming dog owners. Might catch a dog attack on camera even. Take Hone with a loaded rifle. He’ll deal to them. Fuck – if he shot one dead on camera he’d get my vote.

The families of victims are making a renewed push to declassify 28 pages of a 838-page congressional report on the worst terror attack on American soil, which points the blame towards Saudi Arabia.

Until now,the Obama administration has so far refused to reveal the contents of the missing pages and looks to be leaving the decision to a Congressional vote.
