Talk:Rogernomics

message: There needs to be more expansion on what the lasting effects of rogernomics were for the country, ie. The effect of the closeure of state owned bussiness to rural centres etc..
Well obviously state owned business and businesses and government life support will fail once you stop funding their life support through the printing press. That was the only way to tackle the inflation.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sabaton10 (talk • contribs) 15:45, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

message: What does 'resiled' mean in the original article?
:Turned away from, withdrew from, rejected. It just means that Labour is no longer a follower of pure Rogernomics, although there are arguments about exactly how far it has moved away. -- Vardion 02:20, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

message: "from being one of the top five OECD countries to ranking 19th" would be good to give an indication in which timeframe this happened. Did the fall take 5 years? 20 years? Ingolfson 07:35, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Clarification

message: I've checked the OECD stats page ( http://stats.oecd.org ) and all the GDP numbers show significant increases in GDP between 1985 and 1992. The Kelsey article itself has zero refs and is published on the website of "Peace Movement Aotearoa" rather than say an academic journal. The Inflation rate quoted shows some cherry picking (it was higher at the start of the period in line with previous years, much lower at the end ( see http://www.rbnz.govt.nz/statistics/econind/ ) . The unemployment statement appears be roughly correct though. The article is also 11.5 years old, I think that due to the shaky statements we should remove statements from it and instead use something based off the stats from OECD and NZ govt sources. - SimonLyall (talk) 09:17, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

message: Further Reading
Could we add to this section the documentary "Someone else's country" which covered the Rogernomics reforms. I was forced to watch this documentary in a church hall as Television New Zealand refused to screen it on TV. This documentary can be viewed at the site below. Thanks for a great article !!!116.251.150.173 (talk) 08:00, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

message: I added an explicit reference to New Zealand in the lede, but I still wonder if a casual reader of this article would have a hard time realizing that it was about New Zealand government, unless they had prior knowledge about the names in this article already. As a non-Kiwi user, it at least disoriented me. Joe SchmedleyT* 17:07, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Assumptions of reader knowledge about NZ 

message: An editor changed " many of the promised economic benefits of the experiment never materialized" to "did not immediately materialise."  His source is a NZ government report that says that economic growth returned after 1993, which would be about ten years later.
However the source makes no connection between Rogernomics and later recovery and it is synthesis to say that.  If there are sources that make the connection, they should be presented.  We could then establish the degree of support it has in reliable sources.

replies: text: Is this resolved? I agree with TFD that if the source doesn't establish a connection, then it shouldn't be stated. I am not, however, opposed to simply describing the subsequent historical outcomes without comment as to causation. EllenCT (talk) 19:44, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The IP has never responded.  I do not see the point of what happened later unless some source draws a connection.  TFD (talk) 20:43, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

message: The current "Immediate results" section does not seem neutral, reading the section you would think that there is not a person in the world with a positive thing to say about Roger Douglas.
Much of the section particularly the third paragraph is sourced directly by government statistics. These sources simply record the statistics mentioned - this is original research.
I am sure something more neutral can be written. Omcnoe (talk) 09:35, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
