Notice how busy the Media is these days, if it’s not perpetuating propaganda on family violence and child abuse, it’s the good old war of the Middle East. But if you are cool and calm about what’s underlining the mysticism, there’s a lot of poor and old folks who are underdone by various factors including inflation, housing, health, and crime. The standards has fallen that low, even the cleaners are mugged for their wallets. It just shows you how hard done up some folks are, and are reflected at the bottom of the heap. The Pacific Island people once again are leading statistics on health and crimes. Take a reasonable approach about reality, and you will notice there are urgent issues to be concerned about.
I thought I would never see the day a preacher has gone over the other side to justified war! Actually, he sings praises of himself as a highly respected scholar of Christian doctrine, and has a vast international experience in therapy. I often doubt some of his philosophies but thought he was alright until now. He proclaimed a self serving prophecy which justifies war in the name of Capitalism, and advocates for the dictators among the terrorists to engage in war. But sadly, nothing is mentioned about the consequences on the displaced, dispossessed, refugees, and carnage.
If you are informed about Labour and National’s economic and social policies, it is now exactly the same. The poor are targeted to redirect revenues to middle New Zealanders and to business. We are left with bills. Labour has been whitewashing figures in attempts to make us look good, while National supports Labour and the Greens to incriminate us on such policies as smacking and or family violence.
But we mustn’t throw away our vote in spite of controversies, and adversaries. Pacific & Asia unite under a political party will hopefully represent our voice. It is particularly economically attractive because we don’t have a free trade with the USA or UK, and we don’t have to fight their wars either. Instead we can join the UN in a Peacekeeping force around the world.
