1172451 2011-01-25 07:36:00 Yeah, but Goff is clueless and desperate for some attention, so he talks about giving money away without any indication of how he would fund it.

Empty words from a powerless wimp.

1172452 2011-01-25 07:54:00 LOL, Nats tax cuts were fiscally neutral, Goff just wants to tax those that make more money.....so the high rate will go to 47% for 100K+...Say goodbye to the brains of NZ...We will have no Doctors left..

The Nat borrowing in to fix the **** hole Cullen left us.....I knew Labour supporters were peasants but I didnt think they were that stupid....

And with a Labour govt, we'll be borrowing $500m a week to encourage people not to work.

The $5000 tax free income bracket policy is something the previous Labour govt should have introduced back when we had the big surpluses, instead of the "Working For Families" money-go-round scheme they put in place. It would have had a much bigger impact, been "fairer" - and most importantly, been affordable.

1172454 2011-01-25 08:15:00 And the Nats want to fudge the figures when it comes to inflation by not including the rise in GST they introduced!

BTW I did not vote Nat or Labour in the last election and I won't vote for either in the next for that matter.

It's not fudging the figures, it's how inflation should actually be calculated.

1172457 2011-01-25 21:25:00 I'd say its retarded to suggest that the fix for the problem is more of the same crap policies that caused the problem in the first place.

Labour merely redistributed the countries wealth rather then growing it, resulting in lower living standards for everyone rather then raising living standards.

Shameful.

1172458 2011-01-25 21:34:00 I feel betrayed by Key so far with all this Maori pandering he promised to do away with.
Couple that with the incredibly slow roll out of the fibre network and he is going to have to pull something out of his ass to get my vote again.

Labour is no better leaving very little choice.
