Go after the banks. They make around $1000 profit on every man woman and child in the country. It is an extractive industry and should be subject to a healthy royalty. Call it BANK PROFIT EXPORT TAX. Make the rate 50% that’s $2.5 billion right there for the populations ‘wellbeing’. Of course they would scream capital flight but, really would they leave and go without the other $2.5 billion profit. Not on your nelly.

Still if it such a scenario was too ballsy for a NZ government to implement then they could simply require 50% of profits be reinvested within the country instead of exported.

We have skewed our economy in a direction of highly polluting or socially harmful industries… that are growing rapidly to cater for NZ growing poor, so those industries are wanting more people in poverty and more money to third parties (aka them) to solve it.

Examples – we find that in spite of 1.4 million in rubbish bags in cash and 1.5 million illegal cigarettes this women is able to afford the services of Marie Dyhrberg QC, the judge found that the person qualified for suppression due to legal hardship. (weird because most people before the courts also suffer from loss of reputation when charges and it effects people they know too, but they don’t get name suppression, only rich ones, aka poor kids are ok to find their parents charged, rich ones get suppression????)

In spite of working of a parents farm worth 20 million dollars this lady claimed $200k from WINZ and many other benefits while living rent free and working for her family .

On of NZ issues is that there are so many ‘poor’ claiming benefits on paper who are not poor due to trusts and other ways to hide benefits, while those who are poor have to share with this growing group of greedies who come to NZ and sign on or adult children who can sign on while having rich parents and not having to work, that have access to a lot of family wealth and free accomodation that the ‘real poor’ can’t access.

But our laws keep importing paper poor people into NZ and supporting their families and relatives coming with them with benefits that the working and middle class of NZ are paying for while benefits are being drained like super and the health care system.

Stop the relatives coming into NZ and claiming benefits like free education, health care, super, WFF and WINZ is a start and make it a lot longer before you can start claiming everything for free on top of a bogus job or ‘investment’.
