    A study of a massive number of people (13 – not a misprint), all of whom are not “smokers” but do smoke, but only because they are so weak-willed and weak-of-character they allow their friends to pressure them to participate. All of whom are so unable to control themselves they demand the government control everybody.

    What better basis for public policy decisions in the Cuba of the South Pacific?

      “All of whom are so unable to control themselves they demand the government control everybody.”
      Exactly! And in the process, of course, they provide cover for parasites to “research” non-existent “problems”.
      **spit**

    Mental midgets who are effectively beneficiaries whose existence is tolerated because from time to time they provide the Government with cover to pass ever more laws.

    And to raise taxes

      It’s an oppressive, never-ending process. And the sheeple aren’t even aware of what’s happening. :evil:
      Some days, despair is the only rational response……
      (And did you notice, the study may be somewhat flawed because it doesn’t include enough women or people of moori descent!)
      New Zealand is becoming self-satirizing.

        Mental midgets indeed. Your more experienced “researcher” would have preceded their paper with..
        “The effects of climate change on…”
        To ensure continued funding.

    Yet another taxpayer-funded propagandist gravy train. When are these fuckers going to get a real job? Parasitic swine, the lot of them. There are times when I think the total economic meltdown of the West and ensuing war and anarchy would be preferable to this crap.

      There are times? You mean like ALL the time?

      There is a huge crunch coming KG – I don’t know how far it is away but its going to hit like a sledge hammer when it does come.

      All these worthless gender, media, queer studies types aint gonna know what hit them and they are going to be on their own then.

        I don’t know what form it will take, Andrei, but come it must. Things can’t carry on as they are indefinitely.

    On the face of it, the design and findings presented in this research would barely qualify for a B+ grade at an undergraduate level on a 700 Level generic sociology course. This research topic is about as derivative and jeune as it gets.

    And n=13! Ye Fecking Gods!

    Only at a paperback NZ university.

      Good links! Thanks, Wratty. :smile:

      From the first link: *What this means is that the Obama administration has made a strategic decision to join forces with the Islamists rather than fight them. ”

      Which he’s being doing since Day One.

    They are covering this too at dailymail.co.uk .How embarrassing. I fired off a rant to their comments section and am now too dispirited to do another one. When a report of 13 binge-smoking kiddies gets called a peer reviewed University study, it is clearly time for me to find a padded cave and retire from the world for
    quite a while. :sad: :cry:

    The problem is no longer smoking/tree-hugging/any-other-issue-of-the day, it’s the conspiracy between media and gravy-train. We already know what to do about most of the “problems” (many of them not real), but too many vested interests have too much to lose if we actually DO something.
