    This is insanity. Its like someone insisting and begging the fucking dirt to quench their thirst. They swear to it, praise it, and give it everything in hopes that one day it will quench their thirst. Then, they start forcing you to give to the dirt so that maybe it will miraculously transform into some bearer of hydration. We know the dirt will not help, why do our leaders keep trying to bottle it?

    Don’t be stupid, NZ. Private industry will kill you and take your money twice before you can finish “expecting” them to do anything helpful. It’s a scam for rubes, pure and simple.

    Money will only ever move reliably when it is made to move. Taxes, bonds, and laws will work better.

    Oh, this one again.

    As far as experimenting on beneficiaries with unproven policies goes, Im actually kind of relieved.

    Better the devil you know than if they had some new idealogue with a whole new set of nonsense.

    How do corporate structures work in NZ? In the US a type C corporation (the most common) can be sued by their shareholders if the company does anything but work to make money. In contrast, type B, cooperatives, and non profits can contribute to the public good. Is it different in NZ?

      My understanding is that in the US (and around the world), B corps are not some thing listed in the laws if the country. It’s a for profit company that has been certified by the non-profit B Lab as having a high social impact score. NZ does have certified B Corps and our company laws don’t prevent this interpretation of shareholder value.

      There’s an actual legal entity that can be set up in many US states called a benefit corporation, to my knowledge such a thing does not exist in NZ.
