People with large sections who don't want to garden themselves could partner up with a local food grower, and keep a share of the food grown -

#ShowerThought what about, instead of allowing infill housing, the government makes sure at least half of unbuilt urban land is food garden? -

...or we could not cut taxes, which are already among the lowest in the world, and properly fund the public health system -

Hey !kiwi voters, if you save you $1000 tax cut for 20 years you might be able to afford one knee replacement surgery!

Final election results can be compromised by software used to tabulate election results. Is e-voting less secure?

@dt what it does not do is look only for data that supports one school of theory, and ignore all other data. That's not any kind of science. -

@dt it starts with ethnographic field work, and uses a range of theory from the existing literature to interpret the resulting data -

@dt My fiancee just got her Phd in Anthropology, a social science. It does not start with fixed theories and cherry-pick facts to fit them -

@dt it's the method for science. Period. -

@veg05 @dt it takes time for studies to be checked and replicated, and for new information gleaned by them to spread -

@dt again, picking only the facts that fit the theory and discarding the rest is religion, not science of any kind -

@dt you need *a* theory, yes, otherwise I agree you don't know what you are looking at. But a scientist is aware of confirmation bias -

@dt there's no such thing as "solid theory". In science, theories change and expand in response to observed and experimental facts -

@dt yes, I reject starting with what you want to believe and cherry-picking evidence to fit that belief. That's not any kind of science -

@dt you really going to let someone paid by the Koch Brothers tell you what to think and ignore independent research?!?

@dt I gave you peer-reviewed journal articles as evidence, you give me a ream of propaganda from one clearly biased think tank? -

@dt the most profitable health care business is one that keeps people alive but chronically sick, requiring as much treatment as possible -

@dt User pays fundamentally fails in health care, because the better a job a healer does, the less repeat custom they get -

@dt this is an all-or-nothing fallacy. Fire is good for many things, but I wouldn't use it to perform surgery -

Kiwis on the street tell #CheckPoint on #RadioNZ they want properly-funded social services not tax cuts
