I have been engaged as a paid representative acting as an Employment Advocate in more than 300 cases over the last twenty years and given free advice to another 5-600 enquirers. How many cases have you taken?

Relax - I don't expect you to withdraw and/or apologise.

That is excellent work in helping keep people informed as to their rights.

Yup - just like Kainga Ora doing excellent work at looking after their ‘clients’.

Breed more dependents & beneficiaries.

This how Kainga Ora operates and freely spends taxpayers’ funds under Clueless Cindy’s government.

Incompetent and with no accountability.

Breed more beneficiaries & dependents.

I think that is another non sequitur.

Don’t worry; Robbo is borrowing a billion dollars a week so we don’t need to worry about money anymore.

The employment numbers are all fudged, real unemployment rate is well above the number reported.

Vintage Balance - with the milk of human kindness by the quart in every vein!

But of course - a hand up rather than a hand out is what human kindness is TRULY about.

But you & your ilk prefer this of course comes 2023:

Music to the ears of davflaws - do gooders preaching social unrest, more crime and civil disobedience. So the government better give them more money - how about another $240m as incentives to get vaccinated?

Unfortunately what they are saying is probably true. Central bank policies of money printing and interest rate suppression that started with The Federal Reserve have caused dangerous asset bubbles and inflation that is threatening to get out of control. Inequality and the effects of inflation do have consequences. Unless we can find some way out of our housing market mess rents will keep rising. The problem is the mess has been in the making ever since the GFC and there is no fix apparent to anyone.And yes, the Labour response will probably be more intervention in the form of pumping money around.....which will have more unintended consequences such as more inflation. Unfortunately Robbo's big spending policies will be difficult to walk back even if he wanted to. And if we don't raise interest rates the NZD will lose purchasing power and you'll be paying obscene prices at the petrol pump.

The alternative is mass unemployment rather than full employment
