the Economy › Taxes
9>9 Personal answerReform to a flat tax |
Science › Mandatory Vaccinations
9>9 Personal answerNo, but it should be strongly encouraged |
Healthcare › Marijuana
9>9 Personal answerYes, and legalise, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it |
the Environment › Environmental Regulation
9>9 Personal answerCarbon emissions are one part of the climate change puzzle. I think there are other forms of environmental damage that are more concerning like taking to much water out of aquafers, rubbish dumping, chopping down native bush, poor toxic waste management. NZ should also rethink it's strong opposition to nuclear power. Power should be made as cheap and green as possible. Geothermal and Hydro also remain underrated as strong alternatives. |
Domestic Policy › Drug Policy
9>9 Personal answerYes, for most but not all drugs |
Education › University Tuition
9>9 Personal answerSubsidies should be put in place for qualifications that lead to people working in industries that are desperate for more employees. Construction for one is an industry that need alot more workers and has done for a long time. |
Housing › Foreign Land Ownership
9>9 Personal answerYes, but I’d prefer that land should only be owned by citizens and domestic companies |
the Economy › Capital Gains Tax
9>9 Personal answerYes, but only on investment property |
the Environment › Plastic Product Ban
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Transportation › Public Transportation
9>9 Personal answerYes so long as the solutions are effective. |
Domestic Policy › Maori Parliament Seats
9>9 Personal answerNo not yet. I think that in some point in the distant future we should be a position where Māori can have a fair say without the need for quotas. |
the Economy › Universal Basic Income
9>9 Personal answerIt's an intriguing idea that may be worth exploring/ trialing. |
the Environment › Animal Testing
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Education › Te Reo Māori
9>9 Personal answerNo, it should be optional in every school but not compulsory |
Education › Student Allowance
9>9 Personal answerNo, but increase funding where the cost of living is higher |
Healthcare › Healthcare Privatisation
9>9 Personal answerHealthcare for me should be a right. A private system with a public insurance system might be the way to go but I'd prefer an effective public system. Additionally, I'm in favor of putting heathy eating incentives in place so fewer people develop diseases that burden the public system. |
Science › Nuclear Energy
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Immigration › Muslim Immigrant Ban
9>9 Personal answerNo. If we can ascertain they are good people who will benefit the country they should be allowed in. Banning people on religious beliefs is not okay. |
Domestic Policy › Woman Quotas
9>9 Personal answerNo, the most qualified candidate should get the position regardless of gender |
Foreign Policy › United Nations
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Elections › Minimum Voting Age
9>9 Personal answerNo |
Crime › Private Prisons
9>9 Personal answerYes, but they should be strictly regulated to prevent mismanagement and corruption |
Crime › Criminal Voting Rights
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Healthcare › Safe Haven
9>9 Personal answerNo but more should be done to tackle the root of the problem. I don't see why it's hard to target drug manufacturing. Traditional police work following leads to get to the source should be effective. Nobody would be addicted to drugs if there were no drugs. More should be done with regard to mental health too. |
Crime › Defunding the Police
9>9 Personal answerIt could be worth trialing to see if the community program's are effective. I'd be in favor of government funding for community groups that already exist and are motivated by members of the community rater than the government themselves going in and running the program's. I'd imagine this would be more socially effective and more cost effective. |
Immigration › Immigrant Assimilation
9>9 Personal answerNo, but it should be strongly encouraged and services should be put in place and easily accessible. |

9>9 Personal answerYes, as long as it was not a felony, violent, financial, or sexual crime |
Housing › Land Supply
9>9 Personal answerYes |
Elections › Right of Foreigners to Vote
9>9 Personal answerNo, but the path to citizenship should be easer for good people who want to be citizens. |
Housing › Homeless Encampments
9>9 Personal answerYes so long as it doesn't impede on anyone else and no other laws are being broken |
Immigration › Citizenship Test
9>9 Personal answerYes, but it should only cover very basic and simple topics |
