    Ignoring your stupid question - that’s what I am doing. Only a moron would equate a person (made redundant) receiving welfare benefits like jobseeker benefit, accommodation supplement etc to tide them over until they get a job with the parasites and losers who choose to be on welfare as a lifestyle choice. And an even bigger moron when the government is criticised for requiring the redundant person to do everything required to get the next job - like attending interviews, upskilling courses and job training.

    Reversing the envy tax by Labour is exactly what any decent government which wants to lift the aspiration of the country must do.

    Just as reversing Ardern’s dumb energy exploration moratorium. Dumb *itch.

    Lefty's just cant help themselves Balance. They expect a big fluffy mattress to follow them around everywhere. No backbones.

    The other problem is our expensive housing that makes it a “dream” for lower income earners to ever own a home - it shouldn’t be a dream it certainly didn’t used to be.

    Yup - next they will be expecting the government to screw for them and provide babies too as it’s too burdensome to be pregnant. Affects their freedom to enjoy life in welfare.

    That’s a plain stupid generalisation but I’m hardly surprised.

    Close to 200,000 currently on the jobseeker benefit, with over 100,000 who have been on the benefit for over 12 months.

    Yet, NZ has had to bring in over 80,000 migrants in 2023/24 because there weren’t enough workers!

    And now, we have the unemployed squealing that they cannot get jobs even in hospitality because they are competing with far too many other job seekers!

    WTF is going on?

    Last week there was net increase of 1,140 jobseekers …. over 7 days that’s ~160 per day

    We are not in a recession because a recession implies a hiatus between periods of economic growth. We are experiencing sustained economic decline and we seem unwilling to either discuss this fact, nor do anything about
