Dinner With Rodney Hide

Enjoy one of New Zealand’s greatest speakers
Dinner with Rodney Hide
10 July 2008

If New Zealand is not 1st in the world in sport we as a nation are in despair
- - goodness sometimes we have to put up with 2nd or even 3rd!

Why oh why then do we so easily and gutlessly accept a ranking of 40th on the world economic scale or 22nd on the OECD rankings?

To quote a visiting South American agricultural expert recently
‘Don’t New Zealanders realise how fast the world is changing?’

Government spending has increased by $25 Billion in the last eight years.
After inflation real Government spending has increased by a whopping $15 Billion per year
This extravagant spending burdens every family in New Zealand with an extra cost of $200 per week

According to a recent Treasury analysis this staggering spending growth produced ‘no discernible net benefit’

It doesn’t stop there!!
Poor quality government spending is the main cause of inflation
This causes our mortgage interest rates to be at least 3.5% higher than if we were a well run economy.
The extra cost on every $200,000 mortgage is a further $100 per week.

Greece has just whizzed past New Zealand on the OECD rankings where we now rank a miserly 22nd.

If we were a State in Australia we would poorer than the poorest State (Tasmania) by $100 per week per person

If we were a State in the USA we would be 51st (and last) - $120 a week poorer than Mississippi!!

A change of government is not enough!
What New Zealand urgently needs is a change of direction.

National is saying ‘me too’ to the present government’s policies so they are saying they will do the same as now - - only better!

I am not writing all this gloom to thrust you deeper into despair

There is hope!!!!!!!
ACT has a 20 Point Plan to lift the average New Zealander’s income by $500 per week
