Now, we have never shied away from the need for a fundamental shift in our economic thinking—a shift that means putting a focus on the wellbeing of our people and the limits of our planet above the pockets of property speculators. The way that we need to fund our public services in this new fiscal strategy is by broadening our tax base, and it just so happens that there is a massive gap in our tax system where those who earn a salary pay their fair share of tax, but those that own vast amounts of wealth do not. A wealth tax would provide the revenue necessary to increase important, necessary operating expenditure, it would plug a hole in our tax system, and it would mean that the wealthiest New Zealanders would pay their fair share of tax. It would also make David Seymour's head explode, and that's an added bonus.
