The welfare state is unsustainable economically, socially and morally.

Remark of the day
Had to highlight this brief remark from Karl du Fresne
"Sue Bradford was on Radio NZ's Morning Report today lamenting the fact that New Zealand had no left-wing think tanks. Has she forgotten the universities?"
I lament the lack of student protests. Back in the 60's-80's students were politically active and universities hotbeds of political intrigue with active anarchist, communist cells promulgating dissent against the governments stance on the Vietnam war. Exciting times. I often think about protesting about something, but alas my mobility scooter cant keep up with the speed of our changing times.
