New Zealand has been given another chance to free itself from discriminatory collectivism while the US seems to be still battling with it. NZ was saved by the emerging truth of human rights omissions and one of life's miracles, the major Christchurch earthquake (no one killed). The past 20 years in NZ was based on the simple idea that 'the collective is everything and the individual is nothing' driven by the bureaucracy, the status seekers, and supported by governments not, as often believed, by the corporations, the wealth seekers, who however have benefited considerably.

A Charles Darwin University political analyst is forecasting a proposed Indigenous political party could attract 20 per cent of the votes in Central Australia. A Gurindji elder is hoping to launch the First Nations Political Party next year, and this week the Australian Electoral Commission has begun advertising the proposal.
