Sure Chippie, Sure

Stuff reports:

Sometime in the future, the Government will look to “reset” income tax brackets, Prime Minister Chris Hipkins says.

You almost have to laugh out loud at this. Does anyone really think a Labour/Green/Maori Party Government would cut taxes?

Kiwis in jobs shouldn’t have to rely on the goodwill of a Prime Minister to stop their tax bill increasing every year. The tax brackets should be automatically adjusted for inflation, just as benefits and NZ Super has been also.

We should not have to beg and grovel to the Government to simply stop our tax bill increasing every year, even when our income stays static in real terms.
