@NPeteN what Shane wont tell you is tha Kiwis have a strong sense of not-invented-here, especially when it comes to government.

Unless it comes from the UK or AUS, which are special cases.

Also, look up 'tall poppy syndrome'. Another great Kiwi leveler.

Thanks for answering my question.
I'll have to remember to always capitalize my "A"s or KiwiShane might take away my Patriot card.

Hey Shane,
As a Kiwi, what qualifies you to make statements like this? You seem to have a lot of opinions about how the U.S and it's citizens should or shouldn't be doing things.
Not trying to be rude, just curious. Totally cool if you're just a fan of the USA.

Point 1: You know nothing of my ancestry or my family.
Point 2: America is the beacon of Freedom and of Speech
Point 3: This forum is International
Point 4: I need not justify anything I post to you, given your constant trolling.
Eg: you attack the message creator and the forum member but make no comment on the content of the post.
Then when I put up a Forbes balanced analogy of the creator to counter your conspiracy claims ...you become silent....im not saying thats a bad thing

I think I have a better understanding of what makes you tick. Appreciate you.
 
Pention Funds: And your retirement expectations come home to roost.
Larry Fink chalked up another record: the largest amount of client money lost by a single firm over a six-month period. In the first half of this year, BlackRock jettisoned $1.7 trillion. While the firm quickly sought to pin the blame on 2022’s market carnage, there’s more to the picture—and it doesn’t bode well for investors.

Looked it up Gort...the Wikipedia definition does not speak well of those practicing said syndrome.
We have in the US a wide variety of those suffering from "Tall Poppy Syndrome"...certain politicians (among many) leading the way.

Gort...Klaatu, Barada, Nikto

'but if the people who elected politicians paid attention to what they were doing, instead of being too lazy and self absorbed, they wouldn't elect politicians who ripped them off.'

Seems to be the default position for most of them these days, sadly..

(Politicians, that is)

A lot of us are NOT lazy and uninformed, just outnumbered by various classes of people whose votes negate ours.

I will add this: I did not vote for "Orange Man", "Rich man", or "Evil Man", I voted for the more free-speech, constitutional rights, national security from foreign invasion (by ANYONE) candidate. (sadly, congress did not back him up in most cases)

Our country has SERIOUS troubles, and electing those who CLEARLY espouse ALLOWING and INCREASING the level and impact of those dangerous issues is NOT the solution.

I was responding to (and quoting) post #96, here in the UK the politicians all seem to be cut from the same cloth once elected.

That elected cloth you speak of is not unique to just the UK.
I don't like lumping all the politicians into one tub but those that take the high road and hold themselves accountable are few and far between.
Then there is the rest of them.

Your current "Selected" Prime Minister will steer the UK into exactly the same troubled waters the U.S is currently battling with.
L.Truss didn't last long...why was that ?
All roads leed to Davo's..

I must adhere to the 'no politics' rule here (!!!!!) by remaining totally non committal and bi partisan by stating I have contempt for virtually ALL of our lot, whichever side of the trough they may sit..

We call it "current affairs" now...lol
 
Support local.. buy local
We are sleepwalking towards central bank digital currencies & digital ID. It is being nudged as “for our security and convenience” when actually it’s for their control and power. We need to take back control with more localism and less globalism.
