#seymour — Public Fediverse posts

David Seymour's mini-DOGE vanity project, the Ministry of Regulation, is rarely credited with any actual savings, so here's a seriously dumb one.

Farmers using drones will no longer need any training in either flying or agricultural spraying. From mid-2027, just an advance notification to the CAA will suffice.

While a few farmers' sons may be updating their Christmas wish lists, the Aviation Industry Association is not happy.

"Agricultural spray drones are the size of a dining room table, can travel at more than 70kmh and will almost certainly weigh more than 100 kilograms when operating. What happens if a farmer operating one of these has a flyaway or system failure?"

What about keen farm boys over-spraying neighbouring properties? This deregulated attitude is on point for Seymour and the Atlas Network in general.

'Let's increase the risk of death or serious injury on farms. What could possibly go wrong?'

'You know if #Peters, #Seymour and the #Tax Payers #Union are panting hysterically about any #policy that they claim is the end of the world as we know it ... then whoever is making them clutch their pearls ... and act in a most agitated manner has raised something that the people they represent want strangled at birth.

These people do not represent "the people" and definitely not fairness and equality, they represent maintaining a system that rewards the owners of #Capital that benefit from #labour and #business #owners being taxed to #subsidize the lack of #capital gains, #land and #inheritance tax that they refuse to pay.

Calling the #Greens #communists is factually wrong and laughable but the fact they have reacted so #hysterically to the Greens proposed tax #policies, which would force their masters to pay tax (at all) is telling and all fair minded people should support the Greens because of this, otherwise tax #reform in #NZ will not happen.
