So I guess to underpin some of the thematics or the reasons as to why the Green Party of Aotearoa opposes this legislation is to go into some of the thinking behind what we think of when we think of taxation, because it probably isn't things like cancer treatment, or treatment for broken bones, or roads that we use, or the pipes that deliver water to our taps, or for the underpinning of the legal system that means that we all have rights when we buy things or when we contract if things go wrong. Nor do we necessarily think of the financial system that enables operation ease and security of banking, because this is the stuff that taxation pays for. This is the stuff that enables us to be a collective, that enables us to organise as a society, as a community.
