Take a second look at what appears to be someone's "good luck." You'll find not luck but preparation, planning, and success-producing thinking....

Dairy Prices in NZ
Just listening to John Key on 95BFM.
He is trying to explain his take on dairy prices to NZ consumers.
In places where oil is produced, petrol costs about $0.15-$0.20/litre.
So, following the economics of that, New Zealand should have cheap and affordable dairy produce. According to Key, this is not possible in a global economy.
As I finish this, he is talking about New Zealand's oil fields. He is trying to explain how sending our oil off shore rather than building infrastructure for New Zealand is going to benefit New Zealand. We have enough oil to be self sufficient from global oil pressures for... wait for it... 200 years! Yet we are sending it off shore.
He seems to be struggling to make any sense. And his facts seem to be somewhat scattered, a bit like his policies.
