First we have the shallow media reactin to a so-called "milestone" -
with the Epsom MP refreshingly telling it as it isdespite a reminder
that he was "gifted"the seat by National: https://www.tvnz.co.nz/one-news/new-zealand/reserve-bank-tightening-reins-amount-kiwis-can-borrow-cool-off-aucklands-housing-market
What is not talked about is the reality of the government response:
* $25 million more for social housing - that reflects the necessity
for government to make benefits available in terms of their
obligations under existing legislation - its only enough to buy about
25 houses! (whioch of course they are not doing - National ae still
selling houses!)
* The legislation is attacking property rights. Desperate to find land
to build on (land-bankers are of course too slow - that is the "market"working as you would expect...), National want to change the
rules so that if they had previously taken over land for specific use
in the past (eg military requirements) and it is no longer required,
they do not have to offer it back to the previous owners, but can use
it for housing instead . . .
National don't really believe in property rights - all they believe is
that their polling is showing that their poor performance is losing
them votes - staying in government is all they care about . . .
*Meanwhile, immigration is keeping wages low, and delivering National
party donors; capital gains are protected from being taxed as other
income is, and the real estate agents and property developers are
being delivered their dividend for political support . . .
