Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Electricity Profits
Holy Moses, Contact Energy made a small profit for last 6 months, only 44%

Why does the government want to put a LEVY on the poor citizen of NZ, mainly to fund the LNG Storage Facility in Taranaki.
