“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 […]

Our New Zealand Lysenko
By NZB3
In Stalin’s Soviet State one man was given supremacy over science: Trofim Lysenko. He was later disgraced because it turns out he was wrong about so much. Lysenko said what his State liked to hear. Stalin and the Council of People’s Commissars of the USSR fast tracked his career and made him a prominent public […]

Commission on a Mission
By NZB3
The Climate Change Commissioner is still talking of achieving carbon zero targets! Even now, when the country, the world, is being bent over backwards to appease the COVID-19 demon they don’t let up. Of course not. Give someone a title and a portfolio to be in charge of a budget and staff and projects….they’re going […]

Economic Haircut
By NZB3
I was just thinking about haircuts this morning. My last time was in January and what’s that barber doing now? He was working on creating songs at his computer but otherwise had a steady flow of walk-in customers. Now he can’t pay for the lease on the place or any equipment he was paying off. […]
