One of the richest people in the country supports paying more tax, but says the super wealthy worry the government will “squander” the money raised.
Bruce Plested, the billionaire co-founder of Mainfreight, said he supported the idea of a wealth tax to help address concerns about inequities in society.
“I believe I do,” he told RNZ in a new series on wealth launching on Monday.
