It does make me wonder where he was during 9 years of Labour government.

Logical Dave, he'd have been my pick as Helen's replacement in light of Steve Maharey's decision to exit Parliament. A quiet achiever - and a real commonsense, non-dogmatic approach - coupled with a high intellect.

Rob, I think Theresa Gattung probably did more to influence the Telecom share price. Although an excellent CEO for a time, she made some fatal errors in the last year. I got the feeling she couldn't shake the idea that she really might have to compete in future - hence she dug her toes in on the fight with government over infrastructure access and lost the plot on being a good, innovative service provider.

Some of her best technical people became very disenchanted with the political stance she was taking.

I finally got broadband back and watch the above interveiw.
Here is another seemingly intelligent man going round and round the rosemary bush, another one ignoring the fact that the carburretor is out of tune and all you talk about past that point ain't going to effect the current order of things in the slightest. He touches on the self regulating financial sector mantra that they can be trusted to self regulate because the current participents in the markets wouldn't want to ruin the future of the markets, to this I say "bullshit" the current participents don't give a stuff about what is left behind when their current plundering is complete and that implication that that acts as any constraint on their criminal actions in any way is bunkum.
Those that read my submission to this inquiry will no that I supplied irrefutable evidence from the very mouths of the major players and institutes surrounding exactly how our money supply enters circulation and our relationship with the privately owned international central banking network via the NZ Debt Management Office, yet it was completely plastered over in the report, why?

He says we must investigate who loses in the rising of GST, the answer is already known, the very same people who were supposed to lose by design when the financial sector was exempted at its introduction. At introduction the financial sector knowing full well that the imposed structural adjustment's of 1984's repayment crisis and subsequent receivership would see the financial sector activity far outstrip the real sector and much of that activity would be very infrastructure lite, worked with their government co-operatives to exempt GST on financial goods and services in exchange that the financial sector would not claim rabates on real inputs. The financial sector have benefitted massively from this as the virtual has overtaken the real:
"¢ All Goods (no exclusions)
"¢ All Services (except Banking or
financial transactions)
"¢ The rate for Exports is zero (there is a
difference between a zero rate and
exemption)
"¢ Domestic Tax only

Read the above then read below for the classic example of a financially illiterate public representative not knowing when he is being deceived, thus the financially illiterate majority being deceived in turn:
"Banks will escape about $40 million worth of goods and services tax a year under GST changes announced by Revenue Minister Michael Cullen yesterday."

Its like sending "Dads Army" out on our behalf to stop a widescale military invasion. The majority have the right to be fully informed so as they can make an informed opinion as to whether we unite and stand up to this imposed debt slavery or we remain prostrated. I would pick that when fully informed the majority would adopt the same bravery that saw them pay the greatest price in the name of freedom when given the choice in the past. The sad thing in those cases when they did not have the open access to evolving history that we have today, those poor souls were many times forced to fight to the death under only the guise of freedom when in-fact at the core of it, it was nothing more than the balance of power struggles of the elite's or for the profit of the banking corptocracy that financed all sides in conflicts:

"George Bush's grandfather, the late US senator Prescott Bush, was a director and shareholder of companies that profited from their involvement with the financial backers of Nazi Germany.
The Guardian has obtained confirmation from newly discovered files in the US National Archives that a firm of which Prescott Bush was a director was involved with the financial architects of Nazism.
His business dealings, which continued until his company's assets were seized in 1942 under the Trading with the Enemy Act, has led more than 60 years later to a civil action for damages being brought in Germany against the Bush family by two former slave labourers at Auschwitz and to a hum of pre-election controversy."

Ain't wider history grand, no wonder most nations have 50 non-disclosure on official documents, thats those that keep them at all.
