- Description
Text across the top of the cartoon reads 'Capital gains tax Green thinking' Above a doorway in which appears a large '$' symbol are the words 'Where even angels fear to tread'. Two men representing the 'Nats' and 'Labour' look at the doorway in consternation. Context - A capital gains tax is part of the Green Party's solution to reduce New Zealand's debt. The Greens are advocating a capital gains tax, excluding the family home, because we think that's an essential component of the tax system which is present in just about every developed country apart from New Zealand", he told Newstalk ZB. "(It) would make a significant impact in fixing up the governments books." Mr Norman says a capital gains tax would bring in over four billion dollars a year, enough to make a significant reduction to debt, and is also advocating capping government borrowing.
