Labour's State Control out of control

In the latest grasp by Helen Clark and the sisterhood for full state control of every New Zealander we see the Government apparatus, the Children’s Commission and its head Cindy Caro make another play for the control of the nations children.

Caro has put forward a lunatic idea that every child from new-born to 15 years old will be "tracked" by the state. What that means is visits from state appointed workers who will check on the child’s "wellbeing" and make sure that you as a parent are doing what you "should be."

If the parents of a child refuse Government employee’s access to the child, the child can be removed and placed in State care!

The absurdity of the idea is a smack in the face for the majority of families who look after their children well. Targeted action on those who are actually at risk, Maori and Pacific peoples, and proper punishment for those who perpetrate crimes against children are good steps in trying to combat child violence.

State propaganda advertising other socialist nut bag legislation recently passed, the anti -smacking law has recently started. Various Z grade celebrities like Alison Mau and the lefty sniveling "I know better than you," Russell Brown, listed by himself as some kind of journalist, spank themselves silly in print on TV and radio, giving the great unwashed public the benefit of their superior knowledge on child rearing and telling you therefore that your way is wrong, wrong, wrong- insert image of a wagging finger here.

This latest attack on the family is merely the continuation of the state control that has been engineered from the inception of this socialist Labour Government when it took control of the countries finances in 1999.

The overriding focus for Labour in its 8 long years has been law passed to seize control, piece by piece of every individual’s ability to run their lives in an independent way, self sufficient and self reliant.

Labour wants us to rely on the state as much as possible.

The list of Government interference in our lives is a long one.

Labour has passed the anti-smacking bill, the thrust of this law is that parents no longer have the right to challenge or punish children for doing wrong in anyway. If they do their children will be taken away and the parents punished by child welfare agencies. Screwy huh?

Labour removed the choice of individuals to smoke in pubs and restaurants and at the same time private property rights and profits of business owners.

Labour has interfered with food in schools by making such treats as pies and chips, who all sensible people know should only be eaten sparingly.

Labour have interfered in child minding and pregnancy by introducing paid maternity leave, to be paid by taxpayers and employees thereby forcing those families who would pay for their own children’s upbringing to work longer hours to pay the increasing taxes for the scheme.

Labour’s “Working for Families” Welfare package have effectively put another 500,000 individuals on welfare and therefore at the mercy and control of those who hold the purse strings

Labour have brought Railways and Air New Zealand under the state flag and TVNZ has moved towards more state control and failed miserably.

Labour have started a State bank, “invested” millions of taxpayer dollars and have yet to get a return and never will.

I hate to “Labour” the point but the thirst for control by these individuals is monotonous in its regularity.

Along with the looney laws, we have had a mountain of Government propaganda and spin in all the media about what should: eat,smoke, read, drink and how to raise our children and what our families should look like. We are constantly bombarded with these messages to the point that the more gullible and moronic amongst us start to believe what they see, read and hear.

Stalin and Hitler used these same forms of Government spin to get their message across. We are not at this point yet but follow the story of the last 8 years to its logical end.

While all the energy by this government being put into making New Zealand a nanny state is wasted, this countries economy, education, health slides further and further towards oblivion.

The trouble with all this finger wagging and State control is that its logical conclusion would be a state employee following every individual around constantly telling them what to and what not to do. Think that this can’t happen?

The undercurrent and aim of this Socialist Labour Government is to have effective control of everything that an individual does. Private enterprise and self reliance is an anathema to them and not to be encouraged at all, we only have to look at their attack on John Key and his success in life to see where this filthy lot are coming from.

The ultimate in socialist control and for the reigns of power to be held in their hands in perpetuity, is the Electoral Finance Bill, which would, if passed, allow the incumbent to spend taxpayers money promoting government legislation to buy an election while opposing groups to government will be restricted to $60000.00 and not be allowed to criticize government in an election year.

These pigs in the taxpayer trough must be stopped before they end up in bed next to us.

That is a scary thought.
