    I think this is a real positive - business and government working together under the inspirational leadership of Rob Fyfe. Lots of cooperation, creativity and innovation.

    Indepth interview: Rob Fyfe - prepare to live in a Covid-19 world

    "I'm talking to businesses all the time who are, in some ways, almost ahead of government in terms of thinking how can they can operate their businesses and maintain social distancing, make sure they have early detection systems for anyone that may be exhibiting the most mild of symptoms."
    "I personally think whenever we get out of lockdown, it will be far faster than it would have been if we'd waited another week or two to go in. I think we're seeing evidence of that in other countries in Europe and so on. So full marks to the Government for being bold."
    Fyfe has been energised by the willingness of New Zealand businesses to step up and help the national effort. "I've press-ganged a whole lot of people to assist," he says. "I've been amazed at the level of goodwill

    Another good article this time by Rob Campbell saying this is an opportunity to rethink how we want New Zealand to be in the future. It is a chance for some new thinking and innovative ideas to make New Zealand a better place for everyone. Out of crisis comes opportunity. I like that he says "there's no-one more socialist than a businessman who has had his business go bad. The hand goes out to Government pretty quickly."

    Covid 19 coronavirus: No going back to the old economy so be careful how you spend taxpayer cash: Rob Campbell

    The honeypot of Covid-19 Government cash could be tempting companies to make distorted and value-destroying decisions in a misguided rush to recreate the "old" economy, warns business leader Rob Campbell.
    And the chairman of Tourism Holdings, SkyCity Entertainment and Summerset Group says he'd prefer most of that taxpayer-funded honey go to supporting businesses and families at "the bottom of the pile" rather than infrastructure building under some trickle-down economic theory.
    "Most of the pain of the lockdown and the transition out of lockdown will be felt by people at the bottom of the pile socially and economically," says Campbell.

    Maybe positive or negative

    "They suggested a solution to the company, that each man teamed up with his wife, fulfilling the company's safety requirements, the government lockdown measures and merging work and home bubble, thereby keeping risk of infection low."

    A tax break verses a tax handout - seems like a neutral proposition and one could use either method to achieve the same result.

    The problem with tax breaks is that the benevolent dictator doesn’t get to decide who gets the money.

    In this global wealth shift we are trying to move wealth from the masses to the few. To achieve our end goals we need to get rid of the middle class, create one world currency (it won’t be bitcoin but it will be digital), and then one world Government.

    But hey, I am off to put on my tinfoil hat and sit in the corner for a while.
