Too many to list but with re 400,000 businesses in NZ many will now survive some wont and new businesses will be born. As for Unbalanced suggesting the govt pick out businesses here and there and throw funds at them will you can work it out. Whats that saying of benefit to no one"the only ones more demanding then a beneficiary demanding a handout is a business,". imagine 400,000 hands out, if you give to one everyone else wants it too. Seems like balance has no concept of reflection of ones behaviour and correcting it.These sort of people are the scary ones on our society as they justify wrong thinkings and wrongdoings.
This covid may be around a long time and i think its a big mistake giving the police only 3 months as is increasing funeral numbers to 50. I guarantee people will be hugging and kissing and hongiing as we know its a very emotional time and we are human after all and will justify these risky actions. We know big clusters happen around drinking and bars and funerals for two.
Just hope like hell this doesnt add to a bigger 2nd wave leading to a depression! Its weird, i really support/ed the road blocks to protect folks in remote areas, having bigger funerals does just the opposite. Its like its chocks away covid, covid what?! The associate health minister gave an example of that outbreak re 1917 when a family were warned but insisted on taking the body home, they then opened up the coffin and the result all his ancestors there died from the contagion.
Section 71a of the Health act. a constable can enter any building or private home for any of a full suite of powers. This has been around a long time.
Clause 20 of this new bill is narrower. a warrantless power of entry into a private dwelling under covid 19 is limited in effect to breaking up parties flouting the rules around gathering size.
This enforcement power is intended to limit contagion risks and enable effective track and tracing if theres an outbreak to get under control says David P.arker. Once again its like, its over lets go back to how it was before.Unbelievable, chocks away.
2nd wave, economy destruction.Depression anyone. Hope like hell we get through this.It may be many years , a vaccine may not even be found. Good luck everyone we are going to need it, this budget gives us a very good chance to get through this coming global recession but adapt and change we must.
