Crime: Need vs Greed

Anaru from Pakuranga Heights

A programe i watched on TVNZ+.

Crime: Need vs Greed.
By an ex-police detective and private investigator.

Quotes

.....If i say to you criminal, what image comes to mind?
And what sort of crime did they commit.

South Cantabury Finance for example?
No?
.....Tax payers forked out $1.7Billion to bail out South Cantabury finance Investers.


.....While society and the media fixate on gang crimes, ram raids and other forms of street crime, white-collar criminals have been robbing us blind.


....$5Billion to $10Billion crime wave that nobody wants to talk about.

....$900Million cost borne by every taxpayer in NZ, more than every treaty settlement COMBINED in New Zealand's history.
That's, you know, 100 years of benefit fraud... in one go.

Had to edit and move the above paragraph as it was in the wrong place.

Its a great watch.
Watch it. You maybe shocked.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
