NZ is small enough and the government in power is so completely unchecked that if you are the party in power you can pass a law and then directly and personally profit off of it within six months and no one can do anything to stop you.

The Government for line their own pockets

Luxon bought the apartment when investment transactions were subject to a five-year bright-line test. The bright-line test is a kind of capital gains tax that taxes the gain someone makes on a property, excluding the family home, at the owner’s marginal tax rate if it is sold within a certain time period. The test was brought in by the Key Government in 2015 and set at two years. In 2018, Labour extended the test to five years and in 2021 it extended it to 10 years. Main homes, defined by IRD as the home to which you have the “greatest connection”, are excluded from the bright-line test but Luxon’s main home is in Auckland meaning the apartment would have been caught by the tax.
Because Luxon bought and sold the apartment within five years of purchase and he bought the apartment after the introduction of the five-year test, he would have been required to pay tax under that test at a rate of 39% - equating to a maximum tax of $70,200. However, on coming into office, Luxon’s Government scrapped both of Labour’s extensions of the bright-line test, shifting it back to two years as of July 1, 2024. That means Luxon avoided being caught by the five-year test by just over two months and saved himself $70,200. If he had sold the apartment in February, when he declared he would move into Premier House, he would likely have been required to pay the tax.

I thought that Luxon quote was satire and finding it it's not is the most depressing shit. But it's how they all think right? They got into politics to make their own lives richer, not to spread that wealth. That's their whole thing. Gotta stop forgetting there is no bottom. They're craven & proud.I thought that Luxon quote was satire and finding it it's not is the most depressing shit. But it's how they all think right?

Just a reminder- Sir John Key is being sued for insider trading in the USA. #nzpol anyone not mentioning that when covering him is making a choice

A legend walks among us
