In New Zealand they privatised nearly everything and they pay through the nose to overseas owners. Telecom NZ ships a bio$ a year to the cayman islands or whereever Rodney's friends, the elite owners hide their loot.
The country has ever more shoddy infrastructure. Just now they are talking about shutting down passenger-trains. Poverty and crime in South Auckland is appaling and the right-wingers blame the individual.. har har.
New Zealand still hasn't complied with the internationally binding ILO standard of 14 weeks parental leave.
Contrast that with Germany where you get 3 years paid parental leave plus job-guarantee.
