Labour is here to manage capitalism (and let the free market do the rest), the Greens are here to try and add the cost of pollution into the price (and let the free market do the rest) while the Māori Party are actually here to disrupt the Free Market!
Their tax policies are truly inspired and are an actual threat to the establishment, now you know why the Billionaire class and 1% have been pouring money in to National and ACT because they knew the Māori Party under John Tamihere is a completely different political beast and that the Māori Party have no issues holding the wealthy to account.
The Left finally have a political movement they can vote for that will actually force the rich to pay more.
Not Labour’s incrementalism, not the Greens fecklessness, actual hard balling arm twisting real reform.
David Parker, Grant Robertson and Chloe Swarbrick all finally have a partner in John Tamihere to force these changes through.
This is the most radical change to taxing the rich and removing the tax yoke from the working Kiwi!
It’s as close to socialism as we are going to get comrades and the broadness of the policy is not purely for Māori! The MANA Party knew what was good for poor Māori babies is also good for poor white babies and the same is true of the Māori Party Tax Policy – this is good for all of us!
Te Pāti Māori’s tax policy
Tax rates
-
- $30,000 and under – 0% tax
- $30,001 – $60,000 – 15% tax
- $60,001 – $90,000 – 33% tax
- $90,001 – $180,000 – 39% tax
- $180,001 – $300,000 – 42% tax
- $300,001 and up – 48% tax
Currently the top tax rate – for earnings over $180,000 – is 39%.
The party would also:
-
- Remove GST from all kai and regulate the ability of supermarkets to hike prices
- Increase the company tax rate from 28% to 33%
And introduce:
-
- A net wealth tax
- A foreign companies tax
- A land banking tax
- A vacant house tax
The Māori Party have stepped up here and provided NZ with a means to finally tax those rich pricks who are in turn doing everything to stop the Māori Party being in any position to ram this through.
The Māori Party promised, now they have delivered, if you are Left wing in this country, you finally have a Party worth voting for.
There is finally light at the end of the tunnel, and we all know it can’t be a train because we know public transport in this country is never on time or barely working.
This is a watershed moment in NZ politics.
The Māori Party Tax Policy is Kiwi Socialism.

The best tax policy of all parties. Makes you wanna vote for ’em.
Their economic policy is so “socialist” that it’s to the right of Robert Muldoon! Corbyn and Bernie had a platform with some teeth at least; something this watered down won’t excite people.
Yes, not since Mana has there been a party that you WANT to vote for, rather than voting for a “lesser evil” like Labour or Greens (critics should note that Greens have some very extensive good policy too).
I’ll be party voting TPM. Some still do not seem to realise that pākehā are allowed to vote for Te Pāti Māori, you do not have to be Māori, or in a Māori electorate. Two MMP votes fer crissakes–party and electorate.
Debs and Rawiri need to make that clearer to non Māori voters.
Any European New Zealander considering voting for TPM should seek help for self-harm.
and then I woke up and it was all just a dream
Sounds like David Parker’s and Grants Tax policy, that was thrown on the bomb fire.
Those tax brackets appear well thought through. Although Aucklanders probably need some other adjustment on tax due to higher cost of housing and petrol than the provinces.
Still would you vote for a party that doesn’t subscribe to one man one vote and calls that basic equality the tyranny of the majority. And then if you look at parliament through a racial lens you find a greater percentage of Maori in parliament than in the general population.
But aren’t the Greens the same now? Maori Party, I don’t know as well, apart from the scallywag driving them (just like Prebble with ACT). Though they have more force. Like and approve of scallywags, at least if they’re for the people. Most of the Left’s talkers were. Hard to trust John Tamihere in the modern age.
We need an intelligent, informed shouter, the obverse of the Right talker that will be coming up here in NZ soon. The failure of Sanders and Corbyn, they were quiet types. Let’s go on the forefoot.
This is the ultimate crisis, crisis govt means socialism, like in WW ll, under Winston Churchill.
The argument is over. In favour of Galbraith over Friedman. You blogs are terrible about reality beyond the next minute. Where your profits come from. The argument between the 2 economic systems is over.
‘T’Cause’ demands reality every post rather than shit about things that don’t matter. It’s just the main thing now. The 2 main parties have turned to the short-term, we must haul them both up by the neck. I think we can do it for both parties. Their focus groups, the short-term nonsense of the people, suggests otherwise. There is not another electoral cycle. Haul them both up by the neck.
So amusing they both went short term. Describes them and capitalism . A good, but a short time. For anyone under 60 in particular.
Very funny to discover Robertson and Parker were Lefties — they hid it well: no way to know! Describes the situation entirely. But they now need to deliver Labour to talking about reality at the TV debates. If Hipkins can’t do it then he has to go.
WY.
Should our care like, who them slander our socialist thought care, riddicule, money hey, not white fright, just money.

eh! farm fence, what a corporation .
TWO TICKS TPM !!!
But only if you are given a supermarket voucher for bothering to vote?
Tax policy? It’s a dreadful pickle of silly numbers that don’t make economic sense but do make economists gasp in disbelief.
No KFC or Mcdonalds.
My advice to anyone thinking of voting for TPM. Hold off ’til after 14th October and you will get vouchers to the Warriors or KFC.
