I attended the second session of the 2013 Te Papa Treaty Debate series this evening.

This evening we heard shorter presentations from four 'young New Zealanders', followed by a discussion facilitated by Kim Hill. Ahi-kā-ro...

Transparency in New Zealand - Kiwikileaks: March 2015
http://kate-raue.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Transparency in New Zealand - Kiwikileaks. Transparency International merely claims to monitor the PERCEPTION of corruption. Transparency NZ investigate and monitor actual corruption and publish evidence of it. It is clear that the media have a major role in controlling the PERCEPTION of corruption, as the Leveson inquiry revealed, the media is certainly not infallible, and as the Kitteridge report revealed, the relationship between the media and politicians is incestuous and nepotistic. Ring the bells t...

KJT. Random musings on all sorts of things.: Corporatism and Neo-Liberalism
http://kjt-kt.blogspot.com/2011/04/kia-ora-corporatism-and-neo-liberalism.html
KJT Random musings on all sorts of things. Sunday, April 17, 2011. One of the corollaries or supporting ideologies behind Neo-Liberalism is the cult of Management. The idea that individual shareholders, managers or directors are the main contributors to the success of a corporation, and thence the economy. And deserve the greatest share of the rewards. The jobs and income of all other employees and State servants is a generous charitable gift from these people. The star managers paid in millions have pro...

KJT Random musings on all sorts of things. Tuesday, June 9, 2015. The myth of "Retirement Savings". Advocates of Kiwisaver and other funded retirement savings schemes perpetuate the fundamental misunderstanding that "conventional" in New Zealand's case "neo-liberal" economists, speculators, finance companies, politicians and those with a lot of share holding wealth in non-productive enterprises like to perpetuate. US retirees are already finding out how that works. Retirement income, real income as oppos...

KJT Random musings on all sorts of things. Wednesday, January 22, 2014. UBI (3). Taxes, income and Welfare. An often repeated argument against increases in welfare, including UBI, minimum wages or payments to alleviate poverty, is that it will fuel inflation and most will end up no better off. (More market advocates don't seem to have the same faith in "the market" to hold prices down for the poor, as they do for the rich). The answer is, to make the rich less wealthy. WINZ will shrink, for a start. ...
