Bay of Plenty Times editors "Our View Column" strikes again.

Once again the "Our View" column trots out a load of unadulterated, politically correct bollocks!

It is people spouting untruths like this, and making up false rights that have got this nation in the state it is in.

The true meaning of the word "rights" is "something that you do not have to ask somebody elses permission for."

There is no such thing as a "right" to an education or a "Right" to healthcare. This is a fallacy imposed upon us by socialism. These things are a privilege - not a right.

So what do you suggest? That the people of Orewa school be forced to receive a rationed education. That they must not use the best tools to excell because other people cannot afford them.

Do you suggest that they be forced to underachieve because they may be able to afford better tools?

If the government did not have a monopoly on the education system, parents would be able to send their children to a school of their choice, that used methods and taught things that they value. Would you suggest that a talented athlete have a ball and chain attached to his leg to make it fair for those who are not as able? I wonder what all those other individuals the "our View" column speaks for are of the same view.

I would be more outraged than I am now if anybody thought "Our View"  was speaking for me.
Shame on you - again!
