Here in New Zealand they told us that the number homeless people was down, but then we find out they excluded people living in their cars.

Telling me - who got scammed buying a fridge/freezer on-line (no idea if I'll get my money back) - that crime is down 30%. Hard for me to overlook fraud though.

Mainly because what's considered right isn't shared by everyone. It, like truth, is entirely a matter of perspective.Yes, the human element is where most great ideas come undone, with so many agendas it seems we can't just do what's right simply because it's the right thing to do.
