If we don’t stand up and demand real structural change now, we are flat out robbing our children’s future to pay for today’s political PR stunts, and the taxpayers will be the ones sent straight to jail without passing GO.
Australians have been shafted plenty, at the last few elections.
Taxpayers’ Union puts Green promises at $236.7b, or $114,239 a household, after the passenger rail add. Swarbrick wants Finance. Full books still weeks away.
Dragging eyes away from aimless, spirit-sapping, benefit-dependence towards resented superannuitants might play well politically, but it won’t address the disaster that welfarism is. Who is going to talk about it?
Labour kept Willis’s $2.4b allowance, hit surplus in the same year, costed one pay equity claim, and parked the rest in $10.5b of “headroom”. Luxon v Hipkins is Tuesday. Ask who signed the IOU.
If we are going to spend substantial sums of public money and permanently alter the way people live, work, shop, visit one another and move around their city, we should have the evidence to demonstrate that the promised benefits are actually being delivered.
Revolutions have been fought over taxation without representation. Democracy is the tyranny of the majority. But a tyranny of 16-year-olds?

Greens put about $1.1 billion a year, roughly $4.48 billion over four years, on care-worker pay equity. Hipkins called the 2025 change the most reprehensible thing he has seen and still will not cost the reverse. Moral fury without a price tag is not a budget.
Homegrown subversives conspire with a Netherlands NGO to try and ruin New Zealand.
Key says it will be tight getting Willis, Bishop, Goldsmith and Brownlee home. About 125,000 extra party votes for just one list MP, only if National holds 39 electorates. When the scare is Laws and Henry, panic is a confession.
