Labour's Grant Robertson signalled his party would increase some taxes to pay for its policies.
Mr Robertson also indicated Labour was looking at boosting its "KiwiBuild" policy under which the state would build 100,000 affordable homes.
ok, so an affordable home costs $300k? x 100,000 = what?......... 30 billion dollars?
and they want to increase the social welfare spend as well.......
how much tax would 4 million kiwis have to pay to get to 30 billion?
considering most kiwis are not net tax contributors because of the income redistribution policies that are in place.
my question is ....... how are labours policies workable?
