Kerre Woodham: Why is it that this Budget focuses on emissions and not cost of living?


The headline in Stuff is 'Emissions plan could herald the biggest set of changes in New Zealand since Rogernomics'. It will detail ways in which the Government will reorient the economy towards one that actively tries to drive down emissions to get New Zealand to a position of net zero emissions by 2050. So they're saying the economy and therefore society is going to be yanked into a completely different direction from one which we have known since Rogernomics. Why do we have to rearrange society when all that really matters is that you have enough food on the table for the kids and that they're getting educated? So that they have a chance to make a difference in the world.
