Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Good rundown of how our particular brand of BS became 'fiscally responsible' policy.
Nearly 30 years of data showing that only one OECD country has managed to average a Govt budget surplus (just!) while running persistent current account deficits with the rest of the world. How on earth has the small but mightly NZ achieved this economic miracle? Let's have a look... [🧵 1/n]

Tautoko to this!
Commission your friends for art. Give them dollars (this makes them happy) in exchange for drawing you like (this makes you happy). This is symbiosis. This is a healthy ecosystem.

Support your friends. Support art. Support your friends' art.
