After the Greens just proposed hammering nurses with extra tax, I believe there are 2 different high income earners:
1 - those that due to scarcity of supply (lack of competition) can charge a high hourly rate/ salary while working 40 hours.
2 - those that are less skilled but earn highly due to significantly longer hours, night shifts, dangerous work, etc.
Number 1 should be taxed higher than number 2 if they earn the exact same wages. More hours, wear and tear on the body, extra costs (paying someone to mow your lawns and clean your house because you have less time to do it, etc), less leisure time/ time to recover, etc shouldn’t be taxed as much as a 40 hour highly paid worker. Looking at it another way, your hours available not working is significantly less (quality of life) which should be compensated for.
This is the nurse issue. But how do you fix this discrepancy?
And then while we’re at it, we should be able to income share between a couple in a family for tax.

‘The Green Party’s alternative Budget, announced this week, included such hefty increases to income tax that it would reduce the after-tax income of the average registered nurse.’
National - not increasing nurses pay with pay equity but at least not DECREASING it like the Greens proposal…
An average registered nurse's pay will fall under Greens' tax plan
Plans come at an unfortunate time, with the Opposition protesting pay equity changes.

he might have run out of data.
Or short circuited
We might have fried his server, must have been a Temu one like this one, it's all we can afford
I know you come across as a pervert, but nurses are paying more tax under national FACT‘The Green Party’s alternative Budget, announced this week, included such hefty increases to income tax that it would reduce the after-tax income of the average registered nurse.’

How many of the 70,000 Kiwis who left this country for Australia over the past year and each year since covid were chasing higher taxes?
Economic opportunity, job prospects and higher wages are what they seek.
The Greens completely out of touch as usual…

You could say that about any taxation.
If you want a "fair" system, that being one that distributes the wealth and services then isn't an inheritance tax better than paye? The person who worked hard to get it enjoys the spill of their labour then they die and it helps society.
Not saying I want that but can't see how one needs more justification than the other, just a different way of managing tax income and society
If the wealthy and corporates paid their fair share of taxes instead of hiding income in trusts foreign accounts etc. we wouldn't be discussing this issue
Because that money has already been taxed multiple time to help society. Show me a way to accumulate say $10million legally and then pass it on to your children WITHOUT paying 20-30% tax along the way.
Watched a good documentary yesterday called bully coward victim about Roy Cohn. Was fascinating the amount of things he brought that he just didn’t believe he needed to pay for and never did because of his importance and how nobody ever really did much because of his power and the people he was affiliated with. Even looked like a truly evil bastard. The world really is just a playground for the wealthy
