Greens promise free dental for all, paid for by 'fair and simple' tax changes
Ilovethebomb, No information on what these “fair and simple” tax changes are though…
Rangelus, This information is posted in many places. If you actually care to know, a quick Google search would have turned up many articles on their proposed tax changes. Here is one of many.
Ilovethebomb, You don’t think radio NZ should have linked to one of their own stories on the matter?
Rangelus, What does that have to do with the Green’s proposal?
Ilovethebomb, It’s more a comment on Radio NZ’s reporting, I’d have expected them to link to their previous reporting on those changes.
master5o1, Their tax policy was already announced regarding their wealth tax and income tax adjustments.
Iirc very terse summary: 1.5% tax on net wealth > $4M; income tax reduction for <$125k pa incomes, tax increase for >$125k pa incomes.
Ilovethebomb, I know what it is, I find it disappointing Radio NZ didn’t even link to a story on the changes.
HappyPig, You really are a troll. See this thread where you’re commenting on the policy they released over a month ago. lemmy.nz/post/30563
Ilovethebomb, You don’t think a link to one of radio NZ’s own stories on the tax would have been in order?
Obviously I know what they’re referring to.
biddy, Obviously I know what they’re referring to.
Why did you ask then?
Ilovethebomb, I didn’t. I pointed out that RNZ made no mention of the actual tax changes in their story, which I think is somewhat slack on their behalf.
cloventt, Such a great policy for so many reasons. Equitable access to dental care for everyone leads to significantly improved health outcomes overall.
grasshopper, Agreed, and from the article, 3/4 of voters agree too! There’s no reason why teeth should be treated so differently to the rest of healthcare.
deadbeef79000, The dental industry doesn’t want a single-payer at all. That’s the problem, all the experts in the field are operating in their own interests.
Unfortunately ~49% of the population still think that “user-pays” is fair.
