Thread: I think we are about to get F******

What the GovT & IRD fail to realise is , they will not make big Tax takes at all , IT will not work any where close to what they are thinking or not thinking .
The reason people buy from oversea's is 2 fold .

1 ) Its available now .
2 ) Its cheaper .
And when you boil those down , its mainly the cheaper part .

WHY , because we cannot afford it other wise , SO if it no IF its no longer cheaper & we cannot afford IT , then we will not be BUYING it at all , this means NO big Tax take , again no logic applied at all .

Its this simple , the ONLY 2 options are , 1 ) buy if cheap , as thats all we can afford , or 2 ) donot buy as its too dear/expensive .

I love NZ , BUT , its real hard to keep loving her , when LOGIC is no longer applied ,

We have a low population density , ie we have heaps of land , THEN why do we have the most expensive land in the world ?

We have low realitive wages when compared to other developed countries ?

We have some of the highest prices for houses in the world ?

We have some of the highest rents in the world ?

High taxs , & little infrastructure return for our taxes , ie most services are puesdo , ie pretend , we have tax paid public hospitals , BUT donot expect to be able to use them really , IF you want anything more than a disprin & bandaid , YOU need health insurance ????

So just for health , WE pay double , its just one example , services that are meant to be provided free , are NOT , thats just one , you could look at a lot of services that have been split off , and charging seperately , when they did not before .


SO in short we get LOW wages & we pay the highest prices for everything , houses ,land , car , petrol , NICE .
If we had high wages & high housing , its sort of balanced , or low wages & low housing . does any of this seem how it should be ?

We are told , BY the RBNZ not to buy houses we cannot afford , and they stop banks lending to people that donot have enough of a deposit , then on TV tonight , 100% house loans , no deposit needed at all , brillant .
