In New Zealand there's this 'ideal' of 'we are ordinary working class folks who should have quality public sector everything'...

They expect to be paid several hundreds of thousands of dollars per year. And they expect that money that they take from the government... Tehy expect that money to not have to go to pay for things like private health insurance or private schools for their kids or anything like that. They think they deserve those pay-checks and they shouldn't have to pay for those things.

So we ended up with certain areas with the best of teh public resources. Which drove up the house prices. So these people could tell themselves / pretend to be all humble and working class regular folk... In their public ungated neighbourhood...

But using public resources for private advantage, so...

Now they are all 'wah wah wah' about them starting to want to clamp down a bit on school zoning. They are saying parents will be required to send their kids to x or y school if they are public schooling their kids. They won't get to choose.

What do you have to do to get them to pay money for schooling their kids.

They charge their tenants 80 or 90 per cent their tenants income to keep them in cold unhealthy homes... They refuse to pay 10 or even 20 per cent their own personal income for their kids to have private school education / not be profiting or benefiting or being carried by the public sector.

Why do they get paid so much money?

What are they supposed to spend their money on?

Slum landlordism is all...

ffs.
