    When will a political party be “brave” enough to touch the “third Rail” of NZ politics and abolish the tax advantages of property investments? It’s the only way to make house affordable. Or, of course make all mortgage payments and rent payments tax deductible, why should landlords get all the fun?

    So the rich can learn to spell and reason, perhaps?

    At least you admit the poor are propping up the poor, interesting admission to say the least…

    Tell you what buddy, you might get a thrill out of being wealthy and being able to pick your way through the homeless on the streets when you leave your gated “secure” community, but to most people a good society is one where the greatest number of people are happy, maximising utility and all that?

    Or was that just a dumb troll attempt?
