Tariana says, Over this last week the nation has been grasping for understanding to explain away the tragic deaths of three month old twin boys in Mangere. The blame merchants have been at it again, trotting out the same line, finger pointing, grabbing headlines - but no solutions.
It's true. I blame the individuals who have lost their humanity thanks to government's condoning their rotten lifestyles by paying them to perpetuate the manginess.
But I do have a solution. STOP DOING IT. Stop paying people to churn out babies and they will stop. Those babies weren't wanted. They were in the way. If they were wanted they wouldn't be dead.
Hell, if we are going to finance people's destructive drink and drug habits, let's pay them NOT to have babies. Even that would be an improvement.

At our most cynical we could suggest the welfare system's modern objective is to churn out more Labour voters. And if some of them are killed, that's just collateral damage. Hey, even the ones in jail can vote!
Agreed it is not a Maori issue, it is a welfare issue.
You may have the figures on this Lindsay, but it is my conclusion that all the children killed by their caregivers in recent years, the caregivers in each case were on welfare.
In other words people leading purposeful productive lives are unlikely to kill or abuse their children.
That is quite a similar position to take as Tony Milne's blaming it on Section 59 (which he rescinds on here).
Believing that repealing Section 59 will end the abuse of children is as silly as believing that microchipping dogs will stop them attacking children.
