Putting this out there.
If you are educated, in demand or have the financial means to do so GET OUT. Globalization means most jobs can be worked anywhere and those that can’t are often in demand.
My uni is struggling with student numbers and I still don’t understand why we aren’t advertising to every single American high-school. One mass shooting in living memory, mostly understanding culture in regards to LGBT, low religious control, low corruption and great views 15 minutes away.
“only one mass shooting recently” 🙃
In living memory.
I can’t guarantee America has had less than 2 in the last 48 hours.
The US has 55 times as many people living in 36 times as much land and with nearly no restrictions on firearm ownership in the majority of the country. Recipe for a fuckload of mass shootings
It really is.
I do hope you aren’t excusing it, but by that logic NZ should have a mass shooting roughly every 4 months by comparison.
You don’t excuse a disease, you analyze why it’s happening and figure out how to cure it. Understanding the scale of the host is step one. Understanding what other hosts are doing differently, the extent to which it’s working for them, and what effect you could hope to see by mimicking them is step two. In the US, actually implementing any improvement requires relatively broad understanding of what exactly is wrong, how to fix it, and how we know the fix will work without also costing so many people their “freedom” to own a ridiculously efficient killing machine that the improvement doesn’t get shot down. That’s step 3
In living memory, he’s likely australian.
New Zealand going by the username.
That’s a bingo
Perfect, now that I have you here, I have an important question to ask. What is the proper way to refer to people from NZ? I always end up going with something like “oh, they’re New Zealish” but I’m pretty sure that’s not correct.
Easy - we’re all Kiwis. Like the Dutch.
Important thing is that its not a born here thing - kiwis aren’t just NZ European and Maori.
Isn’t New Zealand actually the hardest country to immigrate to?
If you have no skills its an absolute bitch. Unless you’re coming over as a seasonal worker in which they will take nearly anyone.
If you have them, money or a student its much easier.
I’m guessing seasonal workers aren’t welcome to stay though… leaving money or academics. I will say Americans are slowly realizing it’s cheaper to send their kids abroad for college. Germany told parents they had to put up a 10,000 dollar bond to support their kid in Germany and parents were like, “Yup, that’s a quarter the cost of the tuition alone in the US.”
SHHHHHH!!!
We don’t need more people, we have enough of a housing crisis as it is.
Id argue we have a lack of investment and ownership crisis. The houses are there, we just all rent.
Plus, in theory, many of our country’s problems come from low value productivity and goods. Skilled come over, higher value exports, more development here, more tax, a country that can actually do something.
Yes this is probably true, but what will end up happening is that we will continue to buy houses off each other at ever inflated costs. Only the bankers will win.
Investment into productive assets is just not the NZ way.
Hence why the govt needs to step in to regulate housing investment - take some of the demand out of the purchasing market, which then lowers the equilibrium price and makes current ownership even less attractive.

(Being very generalist) whats your role?
Apprentice as an electrician where you are, journey out, reapply. They really need it.
