Prof Jane Kelsey's

Major national assets are transferred to private corporate owners who have primarily very short-term
goals which result in sub-optimal decision-making in times of economic stress, particularly in respect
of strategic assets.
Greatly increased disparity between the 'haves' and the 'have-nots'.
Increase in attitudes of selfishness and 'me first' in the populace, more crime.
Significant geographic regions of the country are severely depressed economically.
Large decrease in all sorts of public service available as of right, resulting in a reduction in standard of
living that is difficult to quantify - one example is information from the many Departmental libraries
that there used to be - gone, or with highly restricted access.
The bargaining powers of wage and salary earners are mostly minimized in the employment world as
unions are disabled and power is vested mainly in the hands of employers; on the face of it, giving
employees the power to negotiate for themselves seems like doing them a good turn; but most
employees have neither the skill, inclination or association of numbers to negotiate effectively for
themselves. They are easily 'picked off' in isolation. 'Divide and conquer' applies in full measure.
This to me is Poverty and generational problems are ;Masochism,Authoritarianism,Lack of
participation in Local issues, Passivity,Low need of / for Education, Finally, Fatalism ,, ( Mr and Mrs
Right Now ). This is a generation cycle and I feel a direct result of the reform implemented by The
fourth labour government .

  The merchant of Venice and the cowards that fear  Enough enough already.     The Crimes; Lets cut straight to the chase.   The quote, which reads, “To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticize,” was quickly identified by some users online as a quote by Kevin Alfred Strom. “Congrats, you just quoted Kevin Alfred Strom, an American neo-Nazi, who first said those words in 1993,” responded  one user. Another commented, “This quote is actually from Kevin Alfred Strom, a white supremacist and Holocaust denier who plead guilty to possession of child pornography.”  and as this is from Reuters, a platform one can trust.    You dear reader are now  a Holocaust denying kiddy diddler.    But the quote still stands.    To learn who rules over you , simply look who you cannot criticize.  Well, turn around, take off any rose colored inhibitors and look back at major events in his...

it's them again boo boo, their history

It's a pretty known fact that the Jews are chosen people and the Jewish homeland is Israel and the Jews believe in the Old Testament and that the Old Testament is about Jews.     However almost none of these facts are true nowhere in the Bible does it call the Jews gods chosen people and only about 5% of the people in the old testament could be called "Jews".    So now that you have branded me an anti-semite we can begin;    The term "anti semite"  literally means against Shem or his descendants however being anti-jewish isn't the same as being anti-semitic.       So let me explain the Semites are the descendants of a man named Shem who would father some of the world's most renowned Empires and dynasties such as the Syrian Empire and Babylonian empires. So why is it "anti-semetic" to say something against the Jews?  Well, just like stealing your religion, your homes, your money, and businesses some Jews also love stealing names...

  The Word Jew Is NOT In The Bible But Blunt Publisher Manipulation Is C H U R C H R E F O R M S E R I E S By Biblicism Institute “A lie can travel halfway around the world while the truth is putting on its shoes.” – Mark Twain The word Jew is nowhere to be found in the good book The word “Jew” did not come into existence until the year 1775 A.D., whereas the occurrences in the bible took place from around 4000 B.C. to 70 A.D. WHO IS A JEW? Its modern connotation points to someone who follows and adheres to a faith similar to that of the Pharisees of Judah, but  is not  of the tribe and stock of Judah. In other words, Jews are people from nations other than the 12 Hebrew tribes who practice a religion known as  Judaism/Pharisaism , the doctrine of the Pharisees. It is much like those who believe in Christ and are called Christians, in honor of the One whom they follow, and their religion is known as Christianity, the doctrine of Christ. If one were to say th...
