So under National, we will shoot all workers and they won’t get any lunch breaks.

There better not be any questions.

  1. Remember tax payers? And we ain’t the richer 1% who have 68 times more wealth than the rest of us.
    We’re paying the greedy, useless, short arsed, true blue, narcissistic thug $ix figure$ plu$ entitlement$ and expen$e$ so she can spread her logical fallacies and dis-eases and that says more about us than her.
    Sober yet?

    New Zealand’s astounding wealth gap challenges our ‘fair go’ identity

    • Good GRIEF!!!
      “The extent of wealth inequality in supposedly egalitarian New Zealand has been laid bare by figures showing the wealthiest individuals have over NZ$140bn (US$93bn) stashed away in trusts – and overall have nearly 70 times more assets than the typical Kiwi.

      The new data, drawn from the 2017-18 Household Economic Survey, are likely to underestimate true inequality, as the ultra-wealthy are generally reluctant to take part in such surveys.

      The data show that New Zealand’s wealthiest 1% of adults – around 38,000 people – have $141bn in trusts. Another 150,000 or so people, rounding out the rest of the wealthiest 5%, have trusts worth a further $122bn.” (From CB’s link)

    • Also from that Guardian link:
      Overall, the wealthiest 10% have 59% of all the country’s assets, and the middle classes around 39%. That leaves the poorest half of the country with just 2%.

      IRD research, meanwhile, shows that more than half the country’s ultra-wealthy individuals – those with over $50m – declare incomes of less than $70,000, an implausibly low figure. They avoid tax, the IRD argues, by taking their income as untaxed capital gains, undervaluing the services they provide to their own companies, and transferring wealth to charities which they control but which make “little or no charitable donations”.

  2. National cares about having healthy workers. We will make it mandatory to wear safety helmets at all time so people can be prepared for anything, even the sky falling. I will be exempt of course, not being a worker.
