The Tax That Never Lands: A 50-Year History of CGT Failures⎥Ep. 2241
For over half a century, politicians have promised – and failed – to bring in a Capital Gains Tax.
In this episode, Ed and Andrew trace the 7 times politicians have tried (and failed) to introduce it, revealing what happened to house prices each time.
You’ll learn:
- Every major attempt to introduce a Capital Gains Tax in NZ
- How each proposal shaped investor confidence and house prices
- Why has this policy become one of New Zealand’s most consistent election failures
Ed and Andrew unpack 50 years of political promises and broken tax dreams, and explain what history tells us about the odds of Labour’s latest proposal ever becoming law.
