In fact we'd spend about a million to prevent it.<BR/><BR/>GNZAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17759756.post-18928447981405990342007-06-04T08:56:00.000+12:002007-06-04T08:56:00.000+12:00People die because of greed every day.

When people struggle to pay bills there should be some backstop to keep people at a living level of warmth, power, and food.<BR/><BR/>I have been in the position where we have had to choose to pay either rent, food or power (through poverty due to ill health) and we had small children and a baby who _needed_ to be kept warm and fed.<BR/><BR/>The stress alone is devastating. <BR/><BR/>I also feel that the health system has some responsibility here though. This woman possibly should have been kept in hospital.<BR/><BR/>No one should die because they could not pay a bill. Not here in rich New Zealand.Muerkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00983180202172098977noreply@blogger.com
