A TINY BIT AT GREAT FANFARE
Another IMPORTANT point is that of the 15% of our population who 'identify' with Maori, probably only about 0.1% believe in the separatist and racist nonsense.
HOWEVER, THEY are the ones who have the ears of government and the farce that goes under the name of the Treaty Tribunal - they are the ones that collect and control the tens of billions of dollars that they have amassed from the Settlements (from the taxpayers) - all in tax-exempt "trusts".
They put out a tiny bit now and then for the rest with great fanfare in the media, but the rest is not used for their own people - their housing shortage, their poor living standards, their poor education.
All these things that are sub-standard are not from lack of support by the government - the Maori qualify for and get far more in financial and other assistance in all these sectors, but they haven't a clue how to manage their own lives - so that is where their billions should be used.
