My two trips to the States left me feeling very grateful for the freedoms we enjoy in NZ, especially our employment law and the access we have to enjoy the land, rivers, lakes and ocean regardless of wealth or status.
My 5 trips to NZ have left me thankful for the girlfriend I met there, the sweet female accent, and some very nice scenery.... though she was anxious to come to the US
She didn't mind giving up your freedoms I guess.
Nobodies perfect.
"Nobody's"
But as for you... 2 trips is DEFINITELY enough to fully understand what all is available in a nation and make educated judgements of said nations !
ffs...
I guess some things just stick out like dogs balls.
Yes... like BS claims you make after 2 trips.
A New Zealander's birthright is freedom of access to almost every river, stream, lake front, beach front, you name it. You can fish, hunt, fly your plane, ride your bike, do whatever you like with very few areas restricted to the general public.
There are restrictions in fishing/hunting in some areas due to a decrease in certain species, or the dangers of guns being too close to residential areas. I guess that is a bad thing ?
You also have to maintain certain protected air space when flying. We have these things called airports, and you can't interfere with their air space. Odd that you don't have that issue. Or is Wellington International the only airport ?
Other than that, everyone here has access to anything and everything, regardless of wealth or status, as you claim.
Private property does not get in the way of people enjoying rivers, streams, lake fronts and beaches.
You can't own these things. i.e. You can't own the beach and keep people from using it.
What you CAN do here is live on the ocean. Live on the lakes. Live along rivers, and still maintain private property.
As I understand it, the USA has much of the best areas tied up in private property with no default right of access.
Absolutely false.
Your mind must be distracted with those dog's balls you mentioned ....
