The "innovative, niche approach to marketing" is available to anyone who wants to use it - or has the ideas to develop. It has nothing to do with the Government. If you have a better mousetrap it's up to you to develop, manufacture and protect your innovative idea. But the chinese will improve on it, manufacture it at half the cost and you will have to return to whatever you did before. Just as a matter of interest about "investing prowess" for some time now - much of last week, some buyer/buyers is coming onto the market in the last minutes before closing and buying up large amounts of SPK. I was sitting on the site at 4.59 yesterday, certain hat I had not achieved my price, then bang, depth shows the last minute purchases and my lot had gone. Maybe the Chinese? maybe Tainui?
