The article also says New Zealand exports 90 percent of its food products. Without that, the collapse scenario that your article described might have happened to them. So far, they seem to be doing good, except in the dairy sector.
See, this was something that occurred to me.
New Zealand isn’t a massive producer on the order of the U.S. If we overproduce we can get rid of part of it, but the rest would remain. It could turn negative.
Look, as Conservatives we all want less government, less intrusion, and less government spending on whacked out programs.
At the same time we have to be open to the idea that in some instances there might be a reason for government involvement.
We need to look at things long and hard during the Trump administration and change things up. EVERYTHING needs looking at.
If we can do away with this, all the better.
We’ll be making some uncomfortable choices over the next four to eight years. I say good.
If this can go safely, it’s just one more step.
I want that spending clock to start reversing in short order.
