New Zealand Mayor: Pay Appalling Underclass Not to Breed

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

An outspoken Kiwi politician has proposed a new solution to the country's child abuse problem - pay the "appalling underclass" not to breed.

Michael Laws - who stirred up controversy by calling the late Tongan King a "bloated brown slug'' - has again hit the headlines.

"That there is a group within our society who give their children no hope nor opportunity from the moment that they are born," the regional mayor wrote on the New Zealand radio website where he broadcasts as a talkback DJ.

...

Mr Laws goes on to write: "it would be far better for this appalling underclass to be offered financial inducements not to have children, given the toxic environment that they would provide for any child in their care."

...

New Zealand is placed third among OECD nations for child deaths due to maltreatment, four spots ahead of Australia, according to UNICEF.

It is ranked fifth for both child beatings and sexual abuse, again several places ahead of its antipodean neighbour.

Preposterous. Australia leads the universe in evertyhing. There is no way the kiwis could lead Austraila in child abuse and maltreatment.

Would you be willing to pay a surtax to fund this?

did I see this correctly...your source is the "Macedonian International News Agency?" What...this mayor's idiotic rantings are not important enough to make the 'New Zealand International News Agency' headlines? Methinks there's a bit of irony here...as if Macedonia didn't have its share of idiot politicians.

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

It's a wire story.

[HAL 9000 96]

Macedonia is Greece.

Runs for cover.

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

Who's your favorite Greek VJer... and how do his statements compare to those made by Mayor Law?

And that is why I picked this wire story from this source and not others.

Would you pay for voluntary sterilizations or would you insist on them being mandatory?

I'd rather offer welfare payments to those who choose not to breed.

Pop a crib midget, lose the welfare benefits.

And Cyprus is Turkey!

No comment, although I tend to agree more with what the modern inhabitants want- before any invasions or 'religious interpretations' or anything like that.

I made some rosemary garlic chicken last night in the oven. It was good.
