Ani O'Brien: Your KiwiSaver owns the companies they want to tax
Labels: Ani O'Brien, KiwiSaver, Taxing companies, Te Pati Maori, The GreensThe Greens and Te Pāti Māori want to tax capital harder. Unfortunately, ordinary New Zealanders own rather a lot of it.
It is easy to shrug off new tax proposals meant to target the “Super Rich” as not something that will affect those of us who don’t have investment portfolios and who have to actually look at the price on the tray of mince before deciding if we buy it. Most New Zealanders don’t think of themselves as the “Super Rich” and most don’t own massive corporations. And this is what political parties count on when they propose vast new tax changes and frame them up as hitting the rich end of town.
