So by targeted rates you were talking rates targeted based on someones income?
If so then I'd agree with you.
Taxes do that but rates shouldn't (they do it by value instead - more expensive houses are owned by rich people who can afford it they say).

the new gov. would agree with you
for the family home (poor churches, maori land etc)
BUT, for a 2nd home, like investment property(ies)
they would like rates to also have a wealth tax component
call it whatever you like - "no new taxes comrade jacinta" certainly won't be calling it a tax - maybe a "think-of-the-children-fairness-levy"?
they want to extract as much money as possible
off the people that don't traditionally vote labour
because that's what labour voters expect
and property, being non-portable and highly regulated
seems the perfect sitting duckLast edited by eri; 10-01-2019, 06:57 PM.have you defeated them?
