Tax Policy next please Don
This sort of shit really pisses me off;
“Dr Brash believes that the rich have to earn more to work harder and the poor have to earn less to work harder because he believes there are two kinds of people in this world – the rich and the rest. National is for the rich. We’re for the rest,” Dr Cullen said.
That's bullshit Mike, work hard, earn more - that's how it works, for everyone. The only difference is, the more successful someone is, the more you take - perhaps fair enough, but certainly not an incentive.
If you want to talk about devisive and alienating, try kicking the family with a combined income of $70K, desperate for a little tax relief, and make them feel bad about being earning more than the median wage. Nothing but exactly average will do for this Government.
