Bryan Gould’s latest article points out the need for New Zealanders to do more than simply notice the income equality gap. We also need to act in favour of closing it. This year that means voting for parties whose policies address inequality.
Concern versus action
About us
Income Equality Aotearoa New Zealand Inc is a national volunteer organisation trying to tackle the wealth inequality and the social problems that it causes. We want a fairer and more equal New Zealand, for all.
Or why not admit no capitalist party can ever reduce inequality as inequality is the very essence of the system. Instead of all the effort spent on campaigning for parties that are the lesser of two evils (and do we really have a choice anyway under the neo-liberal consensus which is in effect a dictatorship of the rich for the rich) we should be spending time looking for alternatives way of organising production and distribution to ensure a just allocation of resources.
