Pollies. Worth?

 There is a thing that writes columns for NewstalkZB under the name "Jason Walls".

I don't know what this thing is. I thought maybe AI but, based on the headlines, that would be just the "A".

I can only assume it's satire but it doesn't appeal so I don't read it.

The headline this week suggests national pollies deserve more pay. I suspect a national pollie had the keyboard this week.

If pollies, whether at local or national level, were paid what they're worth it would cost most of them large amounts to keep their positions.

A few, probably a dozen or so of the current lot, would be above the break-even point. The rest are parasites.

In my younger years a regularly heard suggestion was to sack the lot of them and put a married couple in to run the place.

I believe that still holds true today.
