It's communism, tried and true: ... what is the 40% 'tax' all about? :0))) for the pleasure of travelling using some passport? :0)))))) Communism with New Zealand characteristics. Tax was "only" 33% but a bonus envy tax was brought in by Jacinda The Kind to demonstrate envy of successful people who did things that people wanted a lot of. Communism has never been good and Aotearoa-Zimbabwe is tracking just as communist ideology does everywhere = the ruling bosses do very well while the plebs are poor and die or are killed outright for fun and profit. Virtuous Victorian Values have been enormously successful in Hong Kong. It's so nice to see people being admirable here and there around the world, demonstrating how things can be with better philosophical foundations and ethical premises. Hong Kongers are so lucky to have enjoyed a century of the Great and Glorious British Empire running the show. If Hong Kongers had been able to vote, perhaps they too would have voted for free stuff, commie ideology, poverty, failure and death. I wonder why Mao and co preferred Karl Marx, death, destruction and poverty. I suppose the same reason that Aotearoa-Zimbabwe is going that way = envy, greed, being the boss, with Master Race apartheid thrown in for good measure. Strange that people don't/can't learn from the great tragedies of others who have tried the same. Our little 1 kg brains can't handle much information so we fall into all sorts of traps for the unwary and ignorant. I've suffered enough unwary and ignorant mistakes to be going on with so it's not that I'm immune. Mqurice
