“If we cancelled welfare to 330,000 people currently on welfare, how many would starve to death? Bugger all.” John Key



John Key is being reported by Sue Bradford to have said to Church Leaders “If we cancelled welfare to 330,000 people currently on welfare, how many would starve to death? Bugger all.”

Welcome to the new economic Darwinism.

Yep, and he refused to deny he said it when asked about it by Annette King in the house yesterday.

Are we really that shocked?

'Bugger all' = 'well some will but who the hell cares'.

I wouldn't like to be in his shoes if he did, he would have blood on his hands and payback would be inevitable.

It's SO funny NOT!! how all their over spending & their poor money mismanagement & running the country broke is always blamed on the unemployed, if that's what ALL taxpayers money goes on then cut the benefits so no-one in this country needs to pay taxes anymore!!

I think it fairly clear to see that New Zealand politics are in line with the American, Canadian, British and EU political agenda. Which is to bring down the economic and political sovereignty of these nations and create a world economy. Just look at what France and Germany has to say about what is going on with the EU. In these countries we are looking at these "austerity" measures which include how we humanely deal with the poor and elderly. My guess is that we will hear more and more about cutting off health care services to these folks. Most of it will come from academics in the areas of Bio-ethics, "climate change", theology and medicine. It will sound rational and sensible, but what if it was your family?
