  • Island Life: What I saw at the product launch,

    I have a good friend who is very happy that we have ditched this government that has created such an economic mess over the past 9 years. He operates at a different level of business to me and I find it hard to argue against his knowledge. My own perceptions of the economic situation in NZ are different to his and I voted accordingly.

    He like most of NZ wanted a National/Act government - and got it.

    Interesting comment Bart, I work for myself as a tax consultant,so I probably also operate at a different level of business to your friend but after working in Australia and Britain and dealt with US issues, I'm very wary about the mantra about lower regulation (with Act it's a cult belief). The economic mess we're in is one created by deregulation and poor savings culture. There are very few countries in the western world whose government books are in as good shape as the outgoing government's were. I'm most interested to hear some specifics of his criticism.
