How much trust, belief and even faith does the average person put in the average MP?
How much trust, belief and faith does the average person put in the average bureaucrat?
So why would you choose to give up between 30 and 50% of what you earn/spend so such people can buy your:
- Healthcare;
- Childrens' education;
- Retirement income;
- Accident insurance;
- Income protection insurance.
Would you own shares in an airline, railway, logistics company, power company, bank, coal company, if you knew those choosing the directors faced no financial risk in getting it wrong?
So why do you vote for this?
At this election a vote for National (let alone Labour, NZ First, Greens etc etc) is a vote for the status quo - it is a vote for state funded and controlled education, health care and retirement income. It is a vote for MORE welfare. It is a vote for maybe getting competition into ACC employer accounts. Does that get you excited?
A vote for Libertarianz is a vote to say no to all of this. No to the fraud of National Superannuation, no to the fraud of state rationed health care and state dictated education. No to trusting people you wouldn't let do your grocery and clothes shopping from spending money you spent 2 days a week working for.
I know some on the less government end of the spectrum want to vote National. If this doesn't make you think again, what will? You already fear Labour could get in with less votes than National because of coalition deals with the Greens, Maori Party et al. Don't fear National getting less than Labour - because a National government that includes Peter Dunne - a man who created a new bureaucracy for families, and the Maori Party, a party full of Marxists and other collectivists who think in group speak and group responsibility, rather than individuals - will be nothing more than a different crew, same ship, same direction, slower speed.
Yes, I know, you're going to say what about ACT? Stay tuned.

The state of the country and the parties on offer that stand a chance of crossing the threshold is enough to make you want to go and live in the hills.
Dunne is trying to save himself. What a surprise.
The only thing National has going for it really is that it is not Labour. Its a couple of notches better than Labour but nowhere near enough notches where I could say something positive about it in its own right.
ACT is a definite improvement but you are right they still have a few things very wrong - especially when they suddenly and inexplicably depart from their stated liberal philosophy and go all emotive and soppy in their reasoning.
