What to do with the poor people?

One of the benefits of age is that eventually, things start to repeat. Like fashions.

Life goes in cycles as each generation learns its lessons. Once upon a time everyone had vegetable gardens, and then we didn't, and now they're making a comeback. Of sorts.

Sometimes we just don't see what we're doing wrong because the last time it happened, nobody living was alive. And that's what we're seeing today with the huge rise in numbers of poor people and the many problems they face.

You don't have to be young and pregnant to be poor these days. You can be old and poor as well.

I don't know how we're going to look after them all. They grow in number by the hour. At both ends.

When you look at how it's happening, you'll find that we're creating most of it ourselves.

Taxpayers are paying for the poor people to both breed and live longer in old age.

Darwin told us many years ago that the survival of the fittest is how life survives.

Our ‘survival of the poorest' age may be kind in theory, but it is poor theory.

If it carries on like this, NZ Inc. will be bankrupt within 20 years.
