By choosing to no longer decarbonise, NZ is choosing to be poorer. Continued fossil fuel dependency means forever volatile import costs, increased public health burden, and international market risk. Economically stoopid.

Jordan Peterson is finally home after a month in ICU, but his daughter says recovery has been “slow” and doctors still don’t fully know what’s going on.

I've often said that the main thing that RWers believe about the economy is that the poors are getting too much of the money.
Hold that in your head when listening to Richardson talk about the effects of her policies on the poor & who it is that needs to sacrifice for the good of the economy.

What I'm saying is that this 37% group can be *defeated*, but there is zero historical reason to believe that it can be *won over*.
While we were watching Ken Burns’ “American Revolution,” my husband said more than once, “How did we ever win?” That’s often how I feel now. But the closing lesson I got from the documentary is to persevere. Day by day. I have faith we will emerge from this darkness.
