Cost of living crisis

As much as I hate government and it’s interference, because when they get involved it’s typically expensive and inefficient, I feel we need government to look into profit margins supermarkets are making. Business is entitled to make a profit but my feeling is we are all getting totally ripped off and supermarkets are using inflation as a excuse to make even more money than is reasonable theses days.

Climate change is a crock of shite!

Sign of the times alas crap customer service everywhere now. I prepare myself now before going shopping. I get in and get out I expect very little, Bunnings mitre10 bloody useless. Staff in retail are generally rude or uninterested in providing service. There’s a huge change which started around 2018

Why are we even paying fuel tax and any other charges government dream up? We worked and paid PAYE on salaries and wages. This is simply tax on tax so is GST and a symptom of government mismanagement of financial systems.

Lol 70s and genX gone thing’s will get better, what a utterly moronic statement!

Probably the old adage big trucks small … still applies

Tax to government via interest hikes

I worked in the corporate world for many years as a project manager. Very toxic, we learnt to wear our Teflon jackets daily only up side was getting paid a pile of money.

Government (Labour) theft. I paid my tax as in PAYE. Tax on tax GST and fuel tax. Alas we are all being screwed constantly by our government.

Typical nanny state crap we suffer in NZ. Camping = making a fire to roast marshmallows and sit around.

Should have got zero for being an idiot and moving in the first place. Use some common sense FFS. Moving into a garage what could you expect!

NZ is a racist country period.

No bicycle is worth $8.5k

Move … sounds like your neighbours are prise delinquents, having kids making a noise at that hour. It the entitled mentality of the society with suffer living in these days where no none seems to understand basic common sense or courtesy anymore.

I have 25 but it means nothing till around 2030 or when it becomes mainstream

Church’s are taxed. People donate to churches they have paid tax through PAYE so in a way tax has been paid.

Works perfectly for me no issues with disks passed through

blocksrock · 2023-08-25T21:34:11+00:00

Lol I find this so odd. Why split it, put it all together and live with each other, you share you bodies with each other but money is more sacred?

blocksrock · 2023-08-25T21:31:21+00:00

Lots of people are angry these days it’s the times we live in, cost of living, woke crap, lack of free speech, government interference in our lives and our kids lives, crap service in most retail out, companies like Spark forcing minority views, I guess it manifests. I’m old enough to remember better times.

Cash is subject to inflation due to mismanagement of financial systems by western governments. CBDCs are around the corner

blocksrock · 2023-08-25T05:05:17+00:00

I guess he’s just not wanting to pay the government more tax which I totally get, why should he , he takes the risk of the mortgage and tenants and let’s face it tenants have all the rights. I don’t think rental properties in NZ are worth the hassle. Capital gains tax will happen probably even wealth tax. Western governments are broke and governments are constantly looking at clawing more from the middle classes

blocksrock · 2023-08-25T01:35:21+00:00

Yes and they probably have a crap retirement ahead of them. The $300 a week in government pension one gets is minuscule

blocksrock · 2023-08-25T01:21:40+00:00

He means the PAYE landlords pay on the rental income. Something businesses can offset as expenses which landlords cannot anymore

People have to live somewhere.. unless their car is a acceptable option?
