The
New York Times reports New Zealand now sits in 98th place in a field of 156 countries for vaccination rates. It reports New Zealand has administered 2.8 doses
per 100 people and Australia 6 doses per 100. It is sobering to see New Zealanders would get much better access to vaccines if they lived in Fiji, Colombia or Bolivia. ....

Our beaches in Auckland continue to carry health warnings occasioned by our inadequate wastewater system.
Both Wellington and Auckland ratepayers should be
asking their councils (and their auditors) to explain where the multi millions of rates dollars collected over the last two decades have gone. Rates specifically intended to pay for wastewater renewals and upgrades.

Stable population
It is time to re-think the notion that we can improve our well being as a nation by aggressively growing our population. The evidence is everywhere that this strategy is simply not working.
If
we want to increase our well-being, we need to learn to do more with fewer hands by investing in automation, technology, and expert skills. Using our scarce resources to build more infrastructure and another million houses over the next 30 years is going to get us nowhere. ....

Flipping the housing paradox
If my granddaughter purchased a home to live in she would have to pay all mortgage interest, insurance, rates, plus repairs and maintenance costs out of her tax-paid earnings with no
tax write-offs. Yet as a investor, under current tax laws I can purchase a home, rent it to her at a market rent then claim the mortgage interest plus all the above-listed outgoings as tax-deductible expenses against this rent, thus showing no profit or tax payable.
