[Lightspeed]

Those leaving NZ leave for somewhere where their privilege counts more.

Because there are few places to live that are better for everyone. But if we were to start measuring QoL for the richest, we'd see different conclusions.

So if you've got loads of cash and want to live with a degree of impunity (such as having to deal with the consequences of local deprivation, so you can keep your money), there are definitely better places for you to live than New Zealand.
