whats your thoughts on the CGT

[mashman]

No, it's not.

You're thinking of that other lot: beneficiaries. Or politicians. Same thing.

Oh heyez mista myopia. You're dumb.

I was thinking of you, duh.

[Ocean1]

the government wouldn't need to create new taxes if it spent the current tax take with a bit of care, but hey easy come easy go

I once read a detailed analysis of the value returned by government spending compared to the value returned via private spending. I can't find it now, which is annoying, but it was somewhere around 15%.

Well stop it, your metaphorical spittle gets all over my screen.

lol... yeah there's a lot that could be arsed, but hey, that'd see less money in the economy where it's needed as we would have to choose between people and stuff like roads and other infrastructure stuff that the private sector gouges on a regular basis.

The government wouldn't need to create more taxes if they weren't gouged. They would need more taxes if those doing the gouging actually paid their taxes instead of finding as many legal ways out of doing so as possible just to afford that new boat or holiday (many businesses, it all adds up). Also, if those businesses paid anywhere near a living wage, government wouldn't have to subsidise nearly half of the country financially, but hey, evade that tax mofo... and so the story continues. Blaming the government, outwith their usual lack of ideas regarding anything, is kind of pointless when the rort is virtually everyone who's in business. Ocean mentioned scale of economies. Scale it up v's a CGT and which do you think would end up better for the tax payer in general? It ain't even a competition... but hey, evade evade evade, complain when taxed, rinse, repeat

S'ok though, when the next govt gets in it'll create a new loophole for people to exploit that gets around the CGT.

Well stop it, the metaphorical spittle gets all over my screen.

Then stop projecting metaphorical spittle and deal with what's been said .

[RDJ]

Cool. When a CGT is considered theft by people who limit their tax liability and wonder why the government needs to create new taxes... it's entitlement. Some people have no honour.

What are you smoking. Those of us who all our working lives have had the tax taken out of your pay packet (PAYE) never had any damn chance to avoid any damn tax. Now the toothy commie and her prick henchwits are going to take 33% of the house we bought with tax-paid money. But hey, if you're an iwi, 17% - or more likely nothing*. And you talk about honour. Sheesh.

* "Two large iwi organisations have submitted to the Tax Working Group (TWG) that unless they receive an exemption from CGT, the new tax would breach the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi." Yeah, right.

Bummer eh... Shame we can't tax the poor more.

So you agree, every political entity in this country is radically left leaning.

I dont agree with anything much you post at all, but dont worry its me you are just perfect and throughly reasonable in everyway,
Yet your views are do not represent the majority of voters, yet odly tose socialist ones like mine do, isn't that funny.

[sidecar bob]

I know a few people that do the same things... well, to their chosen extent. Society prodives the houses, you just own them



The wouldn't invest in housing and houses would be affordable.



The left will see ya right in yer old age

But I bought property under the current regime and it was affordable.
Maybe it's got to do with priorities & has nothing to do with "affordability"

Meh, you're a self confessed radical socialist, I'd be worried if you agreed with me on anything.

Really where have i ever mentioned i was "radical or a radical socialist" are you sure that wasn't in your rather vivid imagination?

No, it's in your extremely socialist narrative. You continually espouse radical socialist ideologies and attempt to denigrate and belittle anything that highlights their repeated failure.

In attempting to present your opinions as something other than those of a radical socialist I've given you the benefit of the doubt in assuming that you're simply too ashamed to admit it outright.

As any honest, rational person would be.

You said "self confessed" Radical socialist. do you know what those words mean.
It clearly means i would have had to say or state i was one, As i clearly haven't You again made up shit. polished it and trued to sell it as being Mahogany.
It seems you have a problem figuring out what is reality and what is just your opinion.

Bloody markets eh... if only they were predictable

Yeah your idea of "clear" is as dodgy as the rest of your logic.

It's entirely reasonable to consider someone parroting radical socialist dogma to be a radical socialist.

The fact that you deny that just demonstrates that you're short of the credibility to maintain that it's your opinion that's "real".
