Adults deliver the junk mail in my area so I wonder what rate they're on. Kids deliver the local newspaper; ditto. And yes I have seen the local postie putting the junk in the letterbox with the mail.

Get an other job. Well thats an ignorant view.I imagine the opportunites for a 13 year old are fairly limited.Would it not be better if a large multinational company just paid its workers a FAIR wage ???

I agree busy...becomes easier by the day to exploit kids, the ill and the aged...that seems to be a Labour legacy.
Makes using Asian prison labour, child labour etc a little easier to swallow as well I guess.
I had an awful thought a while back, so awful that I kept it to myself.
I thought it might be possible for the sh....itheads who run our trade union movement, might just pull votes for the continuation of Clark's corruption, by putting fear into the workers that both of these maggots have shat on these past 9 years...and I thought, what if Clark and her liars and deviants actually survived?.....I know it won't happen...it can't.....the people of this country who sat on their asses last election thinking everyone else would vote this trash from power, will this time rise up off their gutless kness, and do their duty.....

Whats good old Helen done for the average Bloke ???She seems to have become very arrogant over the past 2 years and her political buddies arn't any better.
It always seems to be someones elses problem and they dont take reponsbility.
John Key seems a lot more open and speaks his mind

I wouldn't quite classify New Zealand as post 1930's Germany.
But you are correct he did come over well for a period of time.

....even if the Nats do the same thing powley....you could probably expect that. Labour on the other hand, were supposed to be the peoples government...where the avergae working stiff could aspire to greater things...not were the average worker got stiffed.

I doubt National would be so bloody stupid as to continue this rip off practice. They are not long back from the wilderness, and another trip like that, would indeed spell the very end for them.

It is not hard to move away from support farmers as such. Many are now absentee landlords, creaming it off the top, on the backs of other's labour and effort. Yes, there are some still worthy of being called farmers, but if anyone doesn't yet see, that in the end the 'Fonterra Dream' will be their undoing, then they need a very big injection of life skills.

Within the next 4 years, and I say 'within'....something very, very big will happen, and this dairy giant and all who ride upon its back, will be brought to their knees....and the people will say....f@rk you

Labour will be gone by lunch. The numbers aren't looking too rosey for Aunty Helen and the end could not come any sooner. The house needs a thorough clean out.
