Anyway, the last week has been illuminating for me, as I experienced the sickening and rebarbative ‘entitlement culture’ that exists out there. I met several people who have never held gainful employment yet can rattle off by heart the contents of the welfare department webpage giving them other people’s money. Earwigging into conversations bemoaning the money they’re given – and their sense of outrage that Mr Luxon isn’t going to give them even more – is as shocking as it is outlandish. Remember: these are people who’ve never contributed in any way whatsoever – they’re basically parasites.
Then there was my experience of a public hospital after a friend slipped and damaged their knee. The behaviour of ‘welfare-class’ people left me speechless: their demands for this, that and the other, the demanding of their rights (pfft!), and the pressure applied to overworked nurses and doctors really was something I had hitherto not experienced and it made my blood run cold.
I have long believed that the more productive and worthwhile a person is the less ‘entitled’ and the less obnoxious they are when dealing with taxpayer dollars. For instance, rich people feel almost embarrassed to be ‘bothering’ staff at a socialist hospital; not so the welfare parasites: they expect it as their due and will engage in abuse and violence if necessary. Apart from demonstrating, yet again, how rich people are just better people, it made me wonder if Bill Gates once had an experience such as I had last week and his thoughts turned to, well, ‘genocidal culling’.
It put certain things into context for me. My grandfather had a company that employed a couple of hundred of these sorts of horrible people – trailer trash who hail from a certain religion and deceitful, drunken ethnic group from an island off the UK coast. He viewed them as subhuman, treated them appallingly for decades and never paid more than minimum wage – and he laughed about it. Having met their great-grandchildren, I now fully understand why. These are also the people who elect Labour MPs. Enough said.
But my point is simple – this sense of entitlement and widespread availability of free stuff (everything from welfare payments to healthcare) is not good. It has bred a couple of generations of rotten people at enormous financial and other costs – people we really could do without. The blame, naturally, lies with the Labour party for starting all these ‘entitlements’ in the first place, creating weak, useless people as the heroin got mainlined and the work ethic absent as they speed dial the welfare department toll-free number. Even worse is the acceptance by both the National Party and public at large. This idea these are ‘Kiwi battlers from Struggle Street’ is the biggest joke by the Marxists ever foisted upon a nation. Yet who – except me – will call it out for what it is?

Lest you feel no one else feels as you do-Lack of discipline is now generational, use of drugs similarly. Add racially biased laws creating groups expecting entitlement, even as you say, they have failed to contribute in any way to society, and we get what we see now-a steady decline in standards and a creep to tribal rule. Democracy may well have it’s pitfalls but it beats any other form of government control.
Masculinity is no protection against ravages by relationship laws. A deep, quiet introverted intellectual interest in and artful application of laws pertaining to ownership is more likely to conserve in own hands the fruits of ones labours.
Unfortunately cap, you are pretty much on the mark. There are a small minority that are deserving of the sickness or unemployed benefit and I have no problems with this, but it's probably only 5% of what is currently getting it.
I don't consider myself rich, however you accurately described me when I had to go to A&E last year, it didn't feel good as their were many of Arderns finest nz citizens there drunk and abusing staff and creating issues in the waiting room.
If I could have I would have left. I praised the team ( docs and nurses) profusely and asked if it was just a one off day, unfortunately they told me this was quite normal.
And the left want more of these model left nz citizens ( or "Arderns finest" as I call them). Shame, shame shame on the left for creating a disgraceful country with sub par human beings with no humility. As only the left can do....
Cap, you continue to call it like it is mate. Unfortunately you are spot on for me.
I have a story. I had the housing nz contract. I inherited it with the business I purchased. While housing nz didn't pay well, I thought at least I'm helping some of my fellow kiwis out who may just need a helping hand....besides, money isn't everything and I'm in a position to help.
Well after I was threatened, told to f#%@ off, abused, stood over, threatened to be killed, countless times, I reassessed the situation. You see, I didn't want to lose a customer.
And then it happened. Housing nz sent me an email asking if I was maori. And if I wasn't maori they would try to give my contract to a maori business, was the basic jist of the email. This coupled with the abuse made me call them the next day and resign that contract. I even offered to help housing nz and told them that 99% of the houses I attended were maori occupied so just give one of those people a license like I have then they can do my job....and they can cop the abuse to see how they like it.
Fast Forward to today. It is by far the best move I have ever made. I have great customers and housing nz is not one of them. I very rarely say 'never' however, I will never go back to housing nz, even tho they have asked. I guess they didn't listen to me and get one of their tenants a license so it was a maori owned business. Welcome to nz.
Except it is not all Labour's fault. National need to accept half the responsibility, as they do nothing to try and change things when they could. They rail about it, much like the author, but they never do anything.
So yes it is a big problem, but no one is actually interested in fixing it.
While I agree with your comments about grifters, I find your style unattractive.
Given your traditional masculinity I assume you rape your wife as you please, concerned only with your own gratification and beat your kids as an exercise in control and entitlement?
I am not clear whose toxicity this item is about.
Or is this just some sort of nasty joke?
The Cloward–Piven strategy is a political strategy outlined in 1966 by American sociologists and political activists Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven. The strategy aims to utilize "militant anti-poverty groups" to facilitate a "political crisis" by overloading the welfare system via an increase in welfare claims, forcing the creation of a system of guaranteed minimum income and "redistributing income through the government"
