Are these the the theoretical rates of taxation or stats on actual taxation paid? There are quite a number of ways to avoid full taxation . Most of them legal , but a general rule of thumb is that the higher your tax liability the more expensive it is to avoid it. Trusts , Lookthrough companies [ j...

So anyway, I've provided numbers ranging from the minimum wage to $6.6m. Someone on the minimum wage pays 15.4% in tax. Someone on $75k pays 20.9% $100k 23.9% $150k 26.9% $200k 29.1% $300k 32.4% $500k 35% $750k 36.3% $1.0m 37% $2.0m 38% $3.0m 38.3% $4.0m 38.5% $6.6m 38.7% Are these the the theoreti...

Is it the higher wage or salary earners that don’t pay their fair share tho ? Parkers sights were on those that pay only half the % is that . The very wealthy . 5 million doesn’t seem to bad to me , but did that include the house ? I can’t see it qualifies as a ‘envy tax’ is these people are paying...

Are people seriously saying that the country is not divided, that all is fine and dandy?

Daniel Ricciardo is such a twat. How so? I don’t care so much for his DTS persona at times but it’s great to have him back on track. He’s a pro and no matter what shit news his team give him, he rarely responds poorly. Seems calmer and more focussed than most. Purely personality, just rubs me up th...

I reckon Lawson will get his chance sooner rather than later. If Ric goes well I can see a world where Pérez is dropped, Ric moves up and Lawson gets the AT seat next year. While RB have run away with it this year, that’s 75% because of Max and I can’t see Horner wanting to risk the constructors if...

Ok I'd argue that the policy was successful in its stated aim. What in your opinion would be the effect on the housing market if it was reintroduced and would you expect to see a reduction of the average annual rent increase? Yes I think that the current high interest rate environment will potentia...

Going back and looking at your posts, we’re divided just not the most divided, where in your opinion, are we on the divided nation stats, because for me in the last 20 years (that’s all I can comment on) we are the most divided I’ve experienced Edit: It doesn’t matter really, whether or not the cou...

Well Labour has been the Govt for nearly 6 years and this thread is just an online embodiment of what they have brought to NZ. The most divisive Govt ever.

In a bid to shake off my aggrieved, entitled centerism I'm investigating some of the more fringe parties outside of Parliament.

Just saw a video where someone draws this for their kid. In the comments, someone asked how it spread around the US before social media. The replies suggest it was also global with people from Arg to Iran to NZ chiming in! The best source I found suggests it was in a font book in the 1890s but how ...

Great to see Danny Ric back. Would have liked to see Lawson given a run. De Vries offered nothing to the grid. I reckon Lawson will get his chance sooner rather than later.

Ted, I covered the entitled portion with Moon above. The aggravated is a strange one. Some “centralists” are aggravated because of the absence of power, or by the prospect of losing it, but those are centralists by party identity and not due to any rigorous self-evaluation of policy and performance...
