Reasons To Disagree

Taxing od estates is a double theft issue. The estate was already taxed as it was earnt, now we want to tax the net money? Get real

TAXATION IS THEFT IN DRAG! Superannuation should be available to everybody on precisely the same generous terms as the politicians give themselves - what's good for the geese would be great for the Kiwi.

Financially punish families for the death of their loved one? Isn't the funeral expensive enough? Who the hell dreamed this question up. We'll be coming for your property and assets first.

no way - we should encourage rich retirees to settle here & spend their millions.

We must attract and protect wealth so kiwis have access to it. rich people will just set up trusts in other countries

Reasons for Remain Neutral

Definitely. Allow up to say $500,000 for the family home, $100,000 per child for inheritance and tax the rest at 50%. Those figures inflation adjusted.
