Vertical Subluxation - the sole cause of all disease (yes that includes cancer) and manipulation is the cure of all disease (yes that includes cancer).
This is the foundation for the Chiropractor profession!!
And let's not forget Inate Intelligence... the mystical abilities Chiros have.
Chiropractors can eliminate any disease by spinal manipulation... Uh huh...

 EXPOSED: NZTA blows $5.2 million on unusable app 🤳 From the ‘you couldn’t make it up’ folder this week, our research team have uncovered a classic Wellington wasteful doozie, this time by The-Organisation-Formerly-Known-As-Waka-Kotahi. While roads across the country are looking like Swiss cheese, the geniuses at the New Zealand Transport Agency, decided the best use of their time (and our money!) would be developing a $5.2 million (and counting) mobile phone app designed to function as a digital driver licence. Sounds sensible enough, right? The problem? NZTA didn’t bother to check whether the Ministry of Transport and the Police would (or could) actually accept a digital driver licence! So your humble Taxpayers' Union did check. And, digital versions of driver licences can't be used under existing traffic or identification laws.
Put another way, for the app ever to be used for this purpose, Parliament will need to change the law and no one noticed!

Good stuff Mr Reti. Email from TPU In politics, the squeaky wheel gets the oil, and it seems we've had another win thanks to your humble Taxpayers' Union shining the light on mad spending coming from Wellington.
You may recall my earlier emails about the so-called "Health Research Council" which is supposed to be about supporting "high-quality, high-value research" but has in fact been pumping out nonsense for years (my earlier email below is just a sample!).
So I am absolutely delighted to report that this afternoon Minister of Health Shane Reti announced that he is issuing new Ministerial guidelines applicable to the Research Council's grant making so that it "better aligns" with the priorities of the Government and the health system. In his words:
“What that means is a sharper focus on real-world projects leading to improved health and/or health system outcomes, such as improving timely access to quality healthcare for New Zealanders."
And we all know it's badly needed!
You can read the full media release over on the Beehive website.
Of course, we'll be following this one closely (and double checking that the next round of funding decisions cut out the nonsense) but based on what the Minister has said it looks like a great win!
And it's not just a win for taxpayers. Every health dollar is particularly precious and better use of this money, literally means more lives will be saved.
This simply wouldn't have happened without the Taxpayers' Union blowing the whistle and highlighting the wasteful grants publicly (and, dare I say, embarrassing those in the Beehive!).
Now onto the next one!
