The full quote from the 'socialist PM' was 'If you have hundreds of thousands of children living in homes without enough to survive, that's a blatant failure', which is accurate; the reason why we have government regulations is to address market failures.
- dzhiurgis 9y ago> hundreds of thousands of children I don't think there is that many children in NZ. Let alone living in poverty.
- AdeptusAquinas 9y agoRoughly 20%, so around 950k of NZ's pop are under the age of 15. Of those it is estimated 20% live in poverty, so roughly 180k. These numbers are not hard to find.
