Trouble is, it's the selective socialism of favoring one group over another, in order to govern by fostering division - old against young, white against brown, urban against rural, progressive against reactionary. Social justice has nothing to do with Winston's blighted opportunism.Joe Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770796703598222277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7257493550531569180.post-20025805068332193102013-03-07T23:23:09.797+13:002013-03-07T23:23:09.797+13:00Why would I support the economic nationalism of Wi...Why would I support the economic nationalism of Winston Peters? <br /><br />If you believe the Green's then you really are politically naive.

He's guaranteeing to renationalise, so that makes him the new socialist hero, right?<br /><br />As for the Greens, their position is to wait and see how much it will cost before deciding, as it could be more than it's worth when compared with other needs. That is very different to Labour's view.<br /><br />Regarding renationalisation without compensation, while we certainly live in a flawed democracy, while it exists at all you won't get any party that wants to be elected to adopt such a policy. You need to create the political space in the mind of the public first, so time to get that alternative movement going.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
