International Monetary Fund, in its latest Regional Economic Outlook, predicts that next year the New Zealand economy will have the second-lowest growth of the 159 nations it surveys

After six years of Labour, what is our excuse? We cannot say Covid: that was a pandemic, something that is worldwide.

Why does anyone seriously question Nationals tax plans instead of questioning Labour doing 10x the economic damage by mismanagement…

Maybe because National are electioneering on their tax policy rather than providing truly aspirational policy to improve New Zealand?
Giving tax "relief" is easy vote winners whereas well thought out policy to improve the state of the country is much more difficult.

To be fair policy comes out daily so they are campaigning on a total package.

Labour claiming to be better economic managers is the biggest joke around while we’re in a recession with worse to come next year while the rest of the world is booming.
 
National sent me a tax calculator to see how much better I would be under them:\

How much better off you'll be with National​


Total fortnightly saving under National: $0.00

The cost of living crisis has made it too hard for New Zealand workers to get ahead. National will manage the economy responsibly so you can keep more of what you earn.

You cannot make this up​

$40 a week for my house hold.
Ironically more under the Greens and they wouldn't be kicking power people to achieve the tax cut.

It is coming out everyday, but not aspirational really is it.

For a party with 8 x the funding & in opposition to an underwhelming government - this should be easy.

The election period only officially started last weekend 🤣

Party funding is pretty irrelevant except to spread your messages. All parties can only form policies based on the shit show set of books and basket case economy Labour has handed them.

That's a very very naive take on how party funds are utilised.

That's simply not true. Take a look at the financial predictions for our closest neighbors Australia.
Predictions are not good

The Greens policy would see the economy crash and burn and while you would get a tax cut the whole economy contracting would lower wealth, wages and increase poverty.

Name a country that’s wealthy and growing that removes the capital from the producers, investors and innovators?

It’s pretty clear countries that lower taxes thrive and ones like ours that have penalised and taxes business, like over the last few few years end up contracting and in recession.

Which countries are thriving with lower taxes exactly?
 
Mr Shaw is Turkish on his father's side. In all seriousness. There is always a cost associated with change. People want renewable resources and energy, free farmed meat, cage free eggs etc etc. Then they complain when the prices go up.
I just wonder if NZ is mature enough in the next twenty years to have a conversation about fusion reactors or if we will just sit behind the Nuclear Free legislation and not even consider it.
