I think National will get more seats than Labour just.

But I think the Greens will hold the balance of power and Labour will get the Maori Party who will win 2 seats and the Alliance Party with 1 seat on their side too to form a Labour/Green/Maori Party/Alliance coalition.

Can anyone explain to me why getting into debt to fund tax cuts is a good thing, my gf was saying that it is they way all businesses work, borrow money to fund growth in the economy.

But isn't it even better to use your surplus to fund growth than give everyone tax cuts.

The only advantage I can see of tax cuts is that gives people a bit more to spend, boosts the economy by people buying more, but then doesn't that fuel inflation?
