Nathan Najib: Let Me Explain How They Are Coming for You (Not the Rich)
When Chris Hopkins and the labour government say, “we’ll tax the rich,” what they really mean is “we’ll pretend that the rich will be taxed to get votes from the lazy, the complainer and possibly trick as many middle class as we can pretending that we are only going for the rich.” But, they never end up taxing the rich. It never has. It never will.
The truly wealthy don’t play the same game the ordinary kiwis do. They don’t rely on wages. They don’t sell assets. They don’t feel capital gains taxes the way an ordinary hard working kiwi will. They borrow against assets. They shift structures. They wait. They adapt. They always have. An ordinary kiwi family who worked their back off all their lives can’t.
If you’re a middle-income family who:
- Owns your home or aspiring to own one
- Bought or buy a bach or a small investment after decades of work
- Saved instead of spending
- Planned to sell one day to fund retirement or your kids education. You are the target.
A Capital Gains Tax doesn’t hit multi millionaires or billionaires hardest. It hits:
- Retirees selling assets to live
- Families downsizing
- Small investors, not global funds
- People who did “the right thing” and saved.
The super-wealthy almost never sell. You will. And once the door is open, it never closes:
- Thresholds don’t stay high
- Exemptions don’t last
- Rates don’t stay “modest”
What starts as “fairness” becomes routine extraction.
This is how it always works:
A. Promise it won’t affect most people
B. Introduce it quietly
C. Expand it slowly
D. Rely on inflation and bracket creep
E. Normalise it
Then one day you wake up and wonder why your future costs more, your savings buy less, and your freedom feels smaller.
They tell you it’s about fairness. But, if fairness was the goal, government would first stop wasting what it already takes.
Instead:
- Spending grows faster than productivity
- Bureaucracies expand regardless of results
- Debt rises
- Interest costs explode
- And taxes must “temporarily” increase again. That “temporary” increase becomes permanent.
This is why more tax never fixes the problem. It feeds the problem. A government that cannot manage 30% of your income will not magically manage 35% better.
Don’t be fooled by the lie that taxing “the rich” is about helping the vulnerable. The only people these inept politicians on the left really help are themselves. That’s not compassion it’s a trick to get votes and get elected, selfishness, and manipulation.
I recently wrote a post “Why is New Zealand going broke and how we can save it” that’s the solution not more/higher taxes, stimulus, free money, red tapes, bureaucracy or the empty promises of a government that’s going to “take from one demographic and give it to another.”

New Zealand Inflation was announced today from 2.7% to 3%. What does it mean? Is this to gain votes or is it for the betterment for NZ Economy?

We did a video recently showing how the Inflation rates fluctuated each time National/Labour government came in power, so you can predict aswell.
