An interesting day, November 25.

The Reserve Bank manager said ‘we can't control houses prices, it is not our business,' yet that is exactly what he has done by lowering the interest rates to the floor.

People will say it's a supply issue. Well we have always had a supply issue in NZ yet prices never went up as they have right now.

Then he went on to say we have the best economy in the world and on the same day the government announced tampons etc will not be free because too many people can't afford them.

Let me remind you this is the only country in the world where people cannot afford these basics.

Imagine how bad it would be if we had a bad economy in the eyes of the reserved bank [sic] manager.
