Only for the protection of personal property rights though; we can't have safety testing on actual drugs for people who would consider using a drug as they're just not worth helping

I bet Pat Choate felt really clever coming up with "Agents of Change" as a title, but I guess when your surname is just a skip and a jump away from choad any level of wordplay seems elevated.

Chris ruling out a cgt and wealth tax is no surprise, but I don't understand how they think it will attract voters from the right?

IDK where I saw it (probably the discord) but it now lets them hassle National about not ruling out extreme positions from the right-leaning coalition partners like ACT reforming Oranga Tamariki or NZF funding St John's Ambulance.

also as a health care professional my 2 cents : strengthen the community services card system. make it easier and more obvious to get one and maybe longer expiries. let us look them up on the internet (currently we have to make a phone call) and give people an app as well or something.


Take it away from MSD and give it to IR imo. MSD/WINZ are a pain in the rear end to deal with, don't know what they're doing (my wife was told to gently caress off and make an appointment online, despite the bit of paper we got sent in the mail telling her to justdrop in) and are surely off-putting for people who would otherwise be eligible to get one.

I'd certainly describe doctors as well off, I know a few socially and they certainly have a lot more money than me lol.

I don't know that I'd call them rich though. Someone earning $250,000 might sound rich but the RICH rich get so so so much more than that. Doctors still have to work, for example, and usually absurd hours. The rich don't work.

Shaq is rich, the guy who signed his NBA paycheques was wealthy.
