[QUOTE="TravelerFarAwayFromHome, post: 69215634, member: 323095"] thank you for your detailed and intelligent response I am a New Zealander actually and I was talking about New Zealand Labour party you are spot on in your analysis on Australian Labour Party, which applies to New Zealand labour party as well here is the thing National party here in New Zealand say all the right things about abortion, but they will never do anything about it, because most people don't agree with it, and it will be more so as years go by, as the younger generations replace the older ones in fact, National party had already voted for legalization of gay marriage, so that point is moot. so National is really good at talking the talk, but they will never walk the walk in facts, they gone back on their words when it comes to gay marriage However, their neoliberal economic policies are not just talk every single time they are in government, they are very successful at pushing through those policies, so it is not talk only it is scary to see our PM John Key and the vision he has for New Zealand. He consistently deny there is housing crisis, dragging his feet ( still is) when it comes to coming up and implementing policies to stop foreign buyers from speculating on New Zealand housing market and drive up the prices right now Auckland is the fifth most expensive cities in the world National effort of privatize our power company, based on the neoliberal idea of minimal government intervention, and allow the market forces to take it's place, and through create market competitions, the prices will remain reasonable well, the opposite have happened and it should not be a surprise we "know" neoliberal idea don't work because it is a grossly simplistic model that does not take into factors such as human greed, in another word, people did not get into business to benefit humanity, they do it to maximize profit John Key even talk once about wanting to privatize our health care like in the US even though everyone knows how that turned out in the USA, not only insurance companies are squeezing people dry, but the cost of providing health care per capita is also one of the highest in the world I have never heard of a business man who is willing to pass whatever extra profits they have made through cost cutting to consumers, instead of lining their own pocket is John Key a moron who doesn't understand this? well, he spend years building an extremely successful career in Merill Lynch, so one would assume he is far more financial literate and has far better grasp on public policies than rest of us John Key, like many of those Wall Street bankers who caused the financial crisis, has no heart his ideal society is one that is survival of fittest, where only the strong survives, and the weak ( including those who are disabled) should be weeded out there should a special place reserve in hell for people like him [/QUOTE]
