In an opinion piece yesterday, Garth George opined that this election is about freedom. A vote for Key is a vote for freedom, he says.
I kind of agree. People will vote for Key because he isn't Clark and National isn't Labour and Labour (with the Greens in the background) have proved that they will control our lives for us whether we like it or not. They will take far more money from us in tax than is just and give some back to those that are "deserving".
People don't like all that, so will vote for against Labour - but, while it may appear to be a vote for freedom, it will really be a vote for hope. Hope that the new lot will reverse the injustices of the previous regime, hope that their vote will be a vote for freedom and not more of the same.
