Cash paid TJ, fair and square, right back up the line to Te Tiriti [The Treaty]. I'm quite entitled to be here thanks. Before that, the original sellers did NOT acquire the property by agreeing a price. They did it by killing and eating the previous occupants.

So the process by which it was acquired from those who sold was very genteel. By local custom, it should have been acquired by force. But apart from being impractical, since the Maoris had the force of arms to resist any such approach, it would not have been a good way to set up shop here.

Virtuous Values need to start somewhere, and oneself is a good place to start them.

What is still needed is creation of Tradeable Citizenships, so instead of being a state serf and chattel, cattle to be milked, sheeple to be fleeced, people become the owners of their countries, with dividends paid, capital gains enjoyed, good judgments made.

Not all amalgamations of people are the same TJ, though you make silly analogies between the invasion and murdering conquest of Tibet, the proposed one of Taiwan, and the happy marriage of British ladies and Maori blokes [and the reverse].

<so we wrap up another discussion on tibet and nz and n.america. >
