JC: The Left Want to Increase Tax While the Right Want to Cut It

Two articles in the Weekend Herald highlighted the stark difference between the left and the right when it comes to looking at tax. One article was written by Thomas Coughlan and the other by Steven Joyce. One talked about introducing a new tax; the other concerned cutting the existing ones. There are no prizes for guessing which was which. Elections are decided by swing voters and it is a source of fascination to me that the Labour Party think they can attract a majority vote by threatening to rob Kiwis of more of their hard-earned money.
