You know I read that list 5 times without seeing it? Tax starts with 'T'.. but you are right, it is there, disguised and misplaced . I'd suggest, and I suppose I will as soon as I get off this message, that there be a simple entry under 'T' for Tax that says "see Eco-Tax".... Fascinating policy. It'd be a hoot to try it, but we're headed for oblivion with labour f'ing up by the numbers these days. Now how about defense? I didn't look at Labour or National... I looked at NZ First. Very straightforward. Misguided of course, but at least present. Looking at and you're right again... Labour with a big nothing for a tax policy, which explains somewhat their problems getting middle-NZ to vote for them and trust them instead of National. National has a policy section in Finance and Tax (why was this so easy to see and Eco-Tax so difficult), and is semi coherent and misguided but easily found. respectfully BJ Pip

Also look at National and Labour's sites and tell me if they have Tax policies. BJ, look under ‘E’ for Eco-Tax.
