All the taxes Labour has looked at
We have now found out that Labour looked at:
- An asset tax
- A capital gains tax
- A bank tax
They have backed down on them not because they don;’t want to do them, but because they don’t want to go into an election campaigning on them.
But they have an escape route. The Greens have all but said such taxes will be a condition of any coalition agreement.
Can anyone imagine that a Labour/Green/Māori Party Government would reduce the tax burden on the economy, rather than increase it?
