Both hit those with the least money hardest, anyone who says they won't be passed on in price rises is fooling themselves. I cannot believe the first two policies released under Adern are both tax and spend ones! |

yes but its a tax that would be spread over the whole country as the freight companies will build it in to their pricing wont they be too hard otherwise and so yet again the person in invercargill is in effect paying for aucklands mtrway. |

National ha ha lying thieving capitalists who grow economy at the expense of the flora and fauna - including fish stocks....enough of that generation money is everything fold. Time for thinkers. Exactly-there's definitely a move afoot from this National government to now look away from the environment to keep it pristine, altering the script in Parks and Reserves Act to allow intrusion by greedy companies e.g. gold/coal mining in untouched forests, sand mining in Taranaki waters when to me they wouldn't have anywhere near the needed information as to the consequences and all of this by overseas interests! There's a reason why a lot of our rivers aren't swimable any more. And the main one to me is the diluting of the Resource Management Act to suit anything that they want. This is dangerous territory! This goes hand in hand with increasing population....do we really want 70,000 more people in NZ each year? Where do they go, where do they live? This government has shown they only want the money and have done very little to improve the infrastructure to cope with this influx. Winnie's policy on immigration suits me!!! |
