The ACT Party says the solution to that is simple—not to give a few dollars more, to quote that old Western movie. The question is whether we're going to cut taxes by $2,000 on the average earner—take that 30 percent tax rate right down to 17.5, and give the average worker back a bit over $2,000. You know what's interesting about that number is that that's what the increase in taxation has been on the average New Zealander. It doesn't seem too bad.
