Key said...Its important to reward peopleMost people have no problem with that. The problem is when the person raking it in loses millions for the company, eg fontera, and gets paid a bonus to go quietly into the night. They demand responsibility from those at the bottom, yet have no compunction walking away, head high and pockets full from their own mistakes. Greed and narcissistic personalities at their worst.	290	320	30	Gissie
Key said...Its important to reward people. Yes, but what precisely are they being rewarded for? Fella from Fonterra has been rewarded for doing a good job has he?	203	230	27	JazzSingingApple
Being ruthless is not a particularly great trait, why would you brag about it? Is making lots of money a case of who cares the least about others?	158	212	54	Rasco
Book Title: No Limits, by the man who bankrolled the ACT party. Id say about 1% is your limit.	133	187	54	samuel
Good grief. Sounds like my idea of a nightmare night. Bunch of boring rich men reduced to telling us about golfing anecdotes. Horror show.	102	186	84	JosephineF
I prefer Graeme Hart who stays under the radar rather than write books about how great he is or was	94	129	35	IM Happy
Gerry Brownlee is a lot of things but he aint a business person - unless he sold some of his woodworking trinkets back in the day...	85	126	41	SeaEgg
Completely agree. Also, they take a massive golden $ handshake when they go to add to the misery. Meanwhile, the incoming CEO makes all the minions who had no such control or the income in the business redundant. The poor staff pay the price for the incompetence of the Boards and the CEO	84	92	8	Surgeon
Heatley was worth close to 350 million 20 years ago. and yet he has achieved absolutely nothing since. And even that money was made through Sky which is nothing more than a price gouging monopoly. Spare me the BS about entrepreneurship. Just another neolib rentier.	84	131	47	daveyarmstrong

Gerry Brownlee a business person- oh dear, hes arguably not even a politician.	81	111	30	sas0055
By people he means business leaders. Wage workers to him are not people, just cash making assets.	79	105	26	truthsayer22
Oh right, now climate change is important John? Perhaps you could tell us that we should clean up our waterways too? The cheek.	77	141	64	Hamish Campbell

Shock news! ACT contributor gives Labour Prime Minister poor marks!	69	84	15	Here
Well, someone who bankrolled the ACT Party, and is a close mate of John Key, what did they expect him to say in answer to such a leading question? His opinion counts for nothing. Key was very wise to sidestep answering that question.	69	107	38	peter.alchemy
Listening to advice given by someone who bankrolled the ACT Party, I struggle to find the positives in that scenario. That association alone should be enough for all National and Labour supporters to know that his opinion on any government is best ignored. Maybe his considerable experience or luck deserted him with that decision?	68	107	39	Ozza

You mean so many who made so much off the backs of the majority of ordinary Kiwis dont your? Makes my skin crawl. Bloodsuckers.	67	103	36	kgm31
