Re: NZ Election year fun and frivolity thread

So the Government funds private schools between $1429- $2156 per student (for secondary school) and you're telling me no the Government doesn't fund private schools.

So few people earn in the top tax bracket that there's no point at all in pandering to them for votes based on tax cuts and most would likely vote National anyway and the ones that didn't wouldn't change their vote for a few extra dollars.
