"There is considerable public concern about the levels of inequality"

Damn right there is, the bottom half of the income demographic needs to up their game and pay their share of fucking tax.

Lazy bastards.

So judging by that statement do I take it that you consider the multinationals active in NZ are paying their fair share also then Ocean.
What about the banks were they paying a fair share under national then.

Just because one lot are also connivingly dishonest does not mean we should not call others to task.

I have no idea how you take that conclusion, it's nowhere stated or implied. But since you asked : it depends to what extent they're using taxpayer funded infrastructure.

I'm more concerned about the far bigger issue represented by the half of NZ that cost taxpayers more than they contribute. It's a serious imposition on the most productive 25% or so who are obliged to provide the "redistribution" to those who simply fail to produce the goods required to maintain their own lifestyle.

Really I was under the impression you were talking income tax
Remember its IMCOME TAX not OCEANS IDEA OF USE OF INFRASTUTURE TAX.
Oh well go back to your general right wing hypocrisy then ocean.
Afterall why is it fair to get huge income earners like Facebook with little contributions little to NZ economy to pay a fair amount of tax on the money they generated in the National party set up NZ TAX haven.

Just because one lot are also connivingly dishonest does not mean we should not call others to task.

Too right especially if one lot are potential big cash donators to the national and Act party coffers.......

Oh I'd be more than happy with a simply extortionate flat tax rate. The fact is income has fuck all to do with the consumption of tax funded resources. Quite the opposite in fact.

However, the disproportionately higher tax rate paid by the more productive is a blatant rort, and the fact that the more productive one is the less "eligable" one is for access to the very resources one's efforts paid for is seriously fucked up.

But I'm sure somewhere in your mind all that's not only perfectly reasonable but more of the same is eminently justifiable, you're a keen labour man after all.

Dude, labour's the party invented and funded by a few unions, it simply doesn't get more narrow minded than that.

I will give you a clue the NZ taxation system is called income tax.
Higher earners spend less of their income on the basics of life so they have in essence more disposable income.
Its pretty simple that's why a flat tax is not a realistic option.
Unless of course you favour a flat gross income tax solely based on Gross earnings, After all if the cost of maintaining a business or the basics of life are irrelevant ....Thought not aye.

Only Unions actually pay tax far more than Facebook and plenty of others do.
