Normalising Fear and Anxiety

By NZB3

Propaganda like this (left) was paid for by viewers like you. The US funds $400-500 millions to the WHO each year. New Zealand contributes less than $6 millions. “It is normal to feel fearful and anxious during this time.”- World Health Organisation The WHO is literally normalising fear and anxiety. They follow it up by […]

“I cant see the Government shutting down the country for nothing”

By NZB3

Governments seem to make all sorts of screwy decisions. They fix things that aren’t broken, remove things that work, introduce entire institutions and even industries with no practical purpose. Non-Anarchists (Statists to some degree) just shake their heads and wonder why. “Why,” they say, “turn the economy to cinders and ash? Well- let’s give them […]

Hydroxychloroquine

By NZB3

Americans and New Zealanders are very different people. The strain of Statism in the American runs far more deep than in his Kiwi cousin. When US President Donald Trump remarked that a particular medication, Hydroxychloroquine, held promise he was attacked all over the world. Likewise, even more recently, POTUS pitched an question to an advisor about […]

“Money is a spook”

By NZB3

As we come out of Lockdown it has become clear that many of the protected class think it will all be business as usual. They think we’re all going to go right back to work as if it’s all just been some Christmas holiday. In reality, New Zealand’s over-valued economy has been on thin ice […]

“You think we are all in our jobs voluntarily I take it?”

By NZB3

The philosopher who is below average at telling necessary conditions apart from sufficient conditions better be an above average cartoonist. Existential Comics can draw but his ideas…..terrible! I’ve been having a conversation about what he got wrong in thinking that an entrepreneur is supposed to be able to create wealth in a vacuum.. “if the […]

Egalitarian Lock Down

By NZB3

A minor theme during this Lockdown has been the plea of regions to have their economic liberty restored rather than held back by Central Government. Why should the West Coast or the Chathams or Stewart Island or Gisbourne etc. be in detention in involuntary solidarity with everyone else? It’s one minor theme for all of […]

The ‘Contact Tracing’ Contract

By NZB3

The State broadcaster today interviewed the State contractor (who I’m sure was paid handsomely) recruited by the Government to put an academic seal of approval on what Labour 6.0 surely desire to do regardless. The Freudian slip by the Fourth Estate is the symbol for all you need to know about the new Government program called ‘Contact Tracing’. John Campbell on TVNZ Breakfast […]

Mayor says: “force Google and Facebook to contribute”

By NZB3

We have some fun times reading Neil Holdom (New Plymouth District Mayor) thought pieces on Facebook. Ironically, he’s sharing a NZ Herald news item on Facebook while decrying Facebook’s right to facilitate this sharing of ideas. Apparently Neil wants The State to force you to keep such news items to yourself and not share it […]

The Noble COVID-19 Lie

By NZB3

As history repeats, this year’s cold/flu season will appear to vindicate the harsh measures taken by The State to combat COVID-19. We are only in Week 16 now and look at where we are headed. [Image ref. Showing major spike mid-year in illness; Weekly consultation rates for influenza-like illness by year; Stats.govt]   Government knows this […]

“Order Ron and the Police Commissioner to put the troops on the street”

By NZB3

The National 4.0 Minister of Immigration walked away from that job with the prize of being an Immigration Tzar. Facilitator of migrants and delivery man for Diversity. So what I see here is that the man is really pissed off that his human import business is being disrupted so badly. Wants to use his Government […]
