Travel bug
• It does surprise me that there are few letters in the Bulletin about the way our country is being pushed down the toilet by those chosen few being sponsored to govern us. Just to kick start a little interest it is now revealed that ministers spent $307,000, yes $307,000 average EACH on travel expenses, this
year. Think about that, there are about 25 of them. How does Ohakune fit into that? Well average tax of $6,000 means that about half Ohakune's summertime population is working full time for the remainder of their lives purely to fund a ministerial travel habit. I bet you are all pleased about that.
