Our Challenge - Explaining why we need growth. Here is part of a speech by John Whitehead, Secretary of Treasury, to Christchurch manufacturers. He talked about the growth question in New Zealand and also included this discussion about our attitude to growth. If we want growth we will get it but if we don't want growth, because we don't understand all the implications, then we won't get growth. An interesting perspective which points out our main task. Explaining to the citizens of New Zealand that growth is good and we ought to be demanding it from our leaders. The full speech is at http://www.treasury.govt.nz/speeches/canterbury/. Jul 2, 2004, 10:38 Growth is Good for the Poor One of the problems we have in determining policies to help all our citizens is that we have been indoctrinated or perhaps just misinformed to believe many things which are not true when examined in the light of all the evidence. It is time to examine the evidence and think logically as this will unfold the truth and the truth will set us free to enhance more lives than heretofore possible. May 8, 2004, 13:54
