		<description>Hell, if ever there was compelling evidence that Red&#039;s simply a curmudgeon, this is it. The global trends dragging kiwis abroad was terrible, the change is terrible too. I can&#039;t wait for him to lament the Spring warmth and the terrible Tulips running the Teutonic order of his otherwise bare garden.

This trend is a double edge sword, the skilled migration game generally is, citizens return to NZ because of family and historical links, they bring their skills of course but wheres the employment demand? If they don&#039;t get jobs, they might increase welfare costs, if they do, are they just displace other workers? Potentially, the skills shortage in growth is replaced by unemployment in contraction? All the more so, if the Australian economy picks up sooner than the NZ economy, as it&#039;s predicted too, will this turn out to be just a blip... it&#039;s too soon to tell. 

I&#039;m pleased however, that David&#039;s resisted the urge to claim the government&#039;s responsible, they&#039;re not. The only significant change in policy settings that may impact PLT movement between Australian and New Zealand is the super portability which Labour negotiated.</description>

		<description>Did anyone see Alan Duff on the idiot box Sunday night?. If he was in the government he would ship every Maori out of the country for at least two years, simply so they can get their shit together, get off the gravy train and out of the entitlement industry. We could probably include everyone else that has a history of entitlement. I&#039;m afraid I agree with Duff. Having worked with many Maoris overseas and here at home many freely admit that leaving these shores was the best thing that ever happened to them. When I have Maori friends return from overseas most end up shaking their heads in disbelief at the way many are now wasting their lives here. While I&#039;m not for one minute suggesting we take up Duffs suggestion many of us will know he speaks a fair bit of truth. We have huge potential in this country but the establishment of socialism and the welfare state has truly fucked this place. I&#039;m sure National knows what should be done but I doubt their balls will be big enough, so sad.</description>

		<description>With all that&#039;s been going on lately I&#039;m in no hurry to return.  Certainly Bernard Hickey has provided good reasons why anyone under 40 should get the heck out of dodge.  I have always been a fan of a capital gains tax, but for reasons bernard makes obvious it aint &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.interest.co.nz/ratesblog/index.php/category/youtube-videos/page/7/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;ever gonna happen&lt;/a&gt;.</description>

I have spent many years overseas, indeed it is only when one returns that you appreciate what a backward nation we live in, the vast majority of Kiwi&#039;s are apathetic, lazy, envious of wealth, bludgers, gutless, scared, small minded, have a massive inferiority complex, are stupidly concerned about what the rest of the world thinks of us and honestly believe that the rest of the world knows where and who we are.</description>

		<description>With all those NZers at home, funny we can&#039;t make up a national rugby team of people born in the country and who can sing the National Anthem. 

Even in English would be good.</description>

		<description>Quick and effective solution to NZ&#039;s overseas funding requirement, and a catchall for quite a few of Mr Reds moans above.

300k+ Brits are leaving per annum.

NZ is perhaps the hardest Anglophone country to escape to.

There is little merit in importing more folk who have skills already in Country. that will just pander to the xenophobes like WRP.

There are many Trades requiring bulking up, such as Health Care Professionals, and Nuclear Power Station Workers, and Cycle Path Engineers.

Just hang on the the Maths of allowing in true Entrepreneurs who can INVEST a clear $5m in NZD. Apart from buying a House, Cars, 

Health Insurance, Private Education, and the like. Another $1m in year 1 of importation.

10,000 per annum such folk would realise $50BN minimum.

Covers the PSBR, and would stoke the job market tremendously, especially if they had Internet based business&#039;s able to trade, and chiefly export with the World.
