I can assure you its not for the betterment of all of us, maori included..its about the power that comes from dividing a country and levelling off all standards in the true left wing socialist manner. pfrancofilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07218374430680078806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-53217215851284084032021-05-17T13:02:49.726+12:002021-05-17T13:02:49.726+12:00Judith Collins may have misjudged the mood of the ...Judith Collins may have misjudged the mood of the nation. <br />Even if the majority are not inclined to support the un"He Puapua" constitutional blueprint, it would appear that they do not feel all that threatened by it, and desire a change that will finally take Aotearoa out of the era of colonialist rule. <br />There is a growing awareness of the danger colonialism presents to our unity as a people and our economic security. <br />The time for Orewa-style reaction has well and truly passed.

The state owned a substantial chunk of the economy and the workforce was heavily unionised. Economic regulation was heavy-handed and the domestic market heavily protected. New Zealand’s welfare state guaranteed the overwhelming majority of its citizens a job, a home, healthcare, education and generous financial support in times of adversity. </i><br />…….<br />The market can do that also Chris. But what Labour did was start unfettered people flows. The economy expanded on migration. That’s my argument against unions as the solution. Plus it is the unions who now carry that Blairite ideology for open borders.<br /><br /><i>The New Zealand state, born of this nation’s colonial past, has consistently failed to serve the interests of Maori.</i><br /><br />Isn’t it weird that those Maori only need one ancestor?

The majority of non-Maori will not accept 15% of the population taking a minimum of 50% power. It sounds to me that with the VETO on health spending, Maori will be in control. NZ will become an ethnocratic dictatorship. Maori tikanga will supersede Common Law. There are already signs that non-Maori are refusing to be forced into accepting Te Ao Maori, and so should we have the right to objectboudiccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16305676662683376805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-50686691526173404622021-05-14T11:43:34.106+12:002021-05-14T11:43:34.106+12:00The ability to manage and control some of the reso...The ability to manage and control some of the resources which presently and in the future are directed towards Maori while aiming at doing a better, fairer job than the current state funded and organised system seems fair enough. For "Odysseus said" and other moaners to generate mistrust apprehension and fear among citizens and the more recent arriving settlers is foolish The sense of fairness about the redressing of past and current wrongs is widely held among European- New Zealand born citizens- who have had often a fairly decent experience of Pakeha- Maori interactions within the country. The young have had fewer actual experiences But if they went to half decent colleges- have had a much better but often brief education about- Maori, British and Colonial takeover (events around the Treaty) and the impact on Maori even today- than their older - say 50 years plus kiwi elders. The really concerned group are the recent non Maori settlers- with no long term view and no "Buy In" to the process of Treaty actions. Which are effectively directed at trying to sort out and improve Maori access to the resources and opportunities they have been denied since the treaty was effectively ignored by the Euro dominated settler governments from the 1850s until things started changing with recent governments.

Its goal is the entrenchment of the privilege of the tribal elites, and race-based rule over the majority of New Zealanders. Co-governance 50-50 implies that one Maori voice is worth at least three non-Maori voices. Such a regime can only be maintained through State enforced repression which obliges the majority to accept that they are inherently second class because of their birth. I don't see this being accepted or holding in a country whose core value is fairness. To take a topical example, if Maori want a separate health system, fine. But they shouldn't then expect to have a veto over the level of care available to the rest of the population. And it should be funded on a pro rata basis.Odysseushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04745489060434244478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3753486518085091399.post-78674907057438720812021-05-14T07:25:56.470+12:002021-05-14T07:25:56.470+12:00What is good for Maaori is good for the country.
