As a pure capitalist I believe National has lost its way since changing it's original founding principles.

“To promote good citizenship and self-reliance; to combat communism and socialism; to maintain freedom of contract; to encourage private enterprise; to safeguard individual rights and the privilege of ownership; to oppose interference by the State in business, and State control of industry”.

If you never vote as a matter of principle, then surely it is irrelevant what any political party stands for or its policies, whether any of them try to safeguard your privilege of ownership?

Perhaps though you like big state involvement when it comes to the legal framework, judicial system and the enforcement and protection of your asset ownership? Do you like to rely on the socio-political system of private property rights and legal protection and enforcement without taking any responsibility for maintaining that system?
