David Seymour's hypocrisy over drugs & poverty - Lilith7 - 07-07-2025
David Seymour wants more spending on pharmaceuticals like Wegovy because of the benefits to society, but isn't so keen on other forms of spending.
Like child poverty.
Despite big welfare funding increases showing that it leads to a noticeable drop in kids going hungry.

Extremely unlikely. Wealthy people tend to be Neo Liberal supporters rather than working people.

“The Regulatory Standards Bill is another attempt by Seymour to enact an agenda that prioritises the rights and profits of corporations over the collective rights and good of the New Zealand public.
Under the guise of equality before the law and the rather boring talk of regulation and “cutting red tape” is a more insidious goal of stripping the democratic right to regulate business and corporate activity, even when such regulation is in the best interest of the majority of New Zealanders.
For Seymour, however, the fact that increased regulation may not benefit the bottom line of a minority of wealthy individuals and corporations requires the will of the public to be sacrificed once again on the altar of corporate profits."
