	Description:		At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. The Reserve Bank and the OCR: 3/10 "Rate rises for as far as the eye can see. If that doesn’t tell you how bad it is, nothing does." Government's Ram Raid Announcement: 6/10 "At last some help yesterday for the embattled, beleaguered retailer. A few jail terms might not go amiss either." Drive-by Shootings: 2/10 "A sign of what we have become when you are soft on crime and asleep at the wheel." International Students: 4/10 "They're not coming back, manufacturers told us the same thing around workers, and the apples are being left on the trees. Our reputation needs a lot of work; we were closed too long, and too arrogant with it." China's Move into the Pacific: 4/10 "Do you reckon they can believe their luck? How asleep has everyone been here? It's the Solomon Islands, whoops no, it's 10 countries." Zespri: 8/10 "$4 billion cracked and there is more where that came from. Thank God for horticulture." Fonterra: 7/10 "Opening midpoint for the new season $9. Thank God for the farmers." Ricky Gervais: 8/10 "Because he challenges the madness. But he does it in a clever enough way to entertain you and hopefully make more people see the absurdity of the times." Sir Richard Hadlee: 8/10 "The new centre in Christchurch is world class and yet another up lifting contribution from a family who has made this country a better place."
