Increasing rents
With rents skyrocketing all over NZ, surely there has come a time for people, as a whole to say ENOUGH.
There is no need for the greed that is being seen in the obscene amounts being asked for by owners of these homes; $500-600 for a 3 bedroom average home here in Hamilton.
There is no way that anybody has a need to charge this amount, a product of supply and demand I hear people say. What? So we are short of available housing for our people, so that gives Landlords/ladies a right to increase their rent.
THATS GREED FOLKS, PURE AND UTTER GREED
As Mark Twain famously said "It is curious — curious that physical courage should be so common in the world, and moral courage so rare."
Take a stand today, demand from those able to have houses to rent out; that they charge a fair rent, rather than an inflated rent, a rent that they would be able to pay if they had two kids, one partner working in a modest job.....walk in that persons moccasins and do what's morally courageous.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
0% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
0% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
0% ... It is complicated
