See, this is why Opportunity, a party that has never been in parliament, isn’t that far behind the Green party in some polls.
They start with a good idea, and then take it to the point of absurdity. Rather than just saying we will have a state owned supermarket, which is a good idea, and not really that different from the existing state owned enterprises we already have, they then say they will simply nationalise part of an existing business to get this started.
The issue i have with the policy of “Have a state owned supermarket”, in my eyes, is that it dosent give a how. Its just an empty promise, thats what i like about the Greens policy is that it says How they plan on doing it. I take issue with a bunch of our political parties for just releasing policy without saying HOW they will achive it. Excersise for the reader i guess?
I do like the idea of breaking up the duopoly much in a similar fasion as Telecom, that sounds a bit better than “give me your things!” As proposed by the Greens policy.

They just can’t help themselves.
I hope Opportunity get in, it’d be good to have some different voices for a change.
