Capital gains tax abandoned by Government
While the idea of CGT was only a recommendation from the Tax Working Group, it managed to gain enough steam to have almost everyone talking about it.
Both sides had valid points, but the wide range ramifications would've been detrimental to so many e.g. for those who have signed up for KiwiSaver.
This decision is a win for every New Zealander especially the poor, as they would've been the unfortunate ones that could least afford this suggested tax system.
Unfortunately, the businesses and the rich have 'escaped' yet another stake at them having to pay more taxes.
Another look at their tax rates will have to be investigated and what they are actually claiming for in their tax forms.
With the new ways that the IRD is introducing, it will be interesting to see what happens there.

Poll: Have you ever had a scary flight?
A plane flying from Christchurch to Wellington on Sunday had smoke billowing out of the engine and upon landing, passengers had to open the emergency exit and jump out. Have you had any scary flying experiences?

Poll: Is it rude to take a full trolley to self-checkout?
Luckily self-checkout is being pretty common in supermarkets these days and we generally use it to quickly buy a few things without the long lines. But perhaps it's appropriate to head there with your full trolley to skip the lines?
What are your thoughts? Is that rude?
