National - FFS!

Is it? How are they exactly the same?

Actually you're right - they aren't the same but have the same timeline.
National had 9 years trying last time - I can't see them getting anywhere if they got in power - which they won't.

What's with stopping paying into the Super fund?
If I could borrow at the rate the Govt can, and invest at the rate or return the Super Fund manages I'd be in boots and all.
Nat stopped it last time and missed huge gains.
I wouldn't let them manage my money.

Crusher like a damp squib in the house today.
She really needs to up her game - so much for eating Jacinda alive as some have suggested.

Its tough at the top Crusher, welcome to the job! Its our PM who might do the crushing - to you Judith!

Actually that's not even true. No party has tried to repeal the RMA, let alone for 9 years.

PS even a pro National supporter gives round 1 to the PM

Leveraged to the hilt eh Dobby41? What could possibly go wrong borrowing massively in an tumultuous period for speculative investments that fund annuities? I guess if things go wrong we could follow Cullen's ideological burp and turn NatSup payments into a top-up on Kiwisaver annuity payments.

Sad that you may be financially illiterate which can't be helped I suppose.

Resorting to personal attacks again, rather than posing facts that supports your position speaks volumes about you Panda.

How much do you borrow on your house? or business? and what is the interest..

You need to take into account the risks around speculative investments, particularly where superannuation is concerned, along with existing debt levels which are extraordinarily high. Continuing to borrow like there's no tomorrow because interest rates are low is not necessarily a fiscally prudent move.
