What is meant by a "speculative Wall St transaction" in this context?

What kind of a society would flow from this mish-mash? The different points are intrinsically contradictory.

I think you are tying too many elements of economics together unfortunately this has resulted in statements not discussion points.

Move towards a gold standard

That is a stupid, stupid idea.

Flat rate Tax System

That is also a stupid, stupid idea.

Read the proposal, people! The "gold standard" alone is worth disagreeing with this proposal!

I view the move by the reserve bank to raise the OCR 3x this yyear as interference and unnecessary and directly removes interest monies from our economy. The banks and overseas investors benefit kiwi families do not

There is no need to abolish the Reserve Bank, perhaps in 2017 if things haven't changed but not in this election whereas the amendment of the RB Act is suffice to implement the needed monetary and fiscal reforms to increase the money flow.

My problem with this is:
Drop the gold standard. it is useless because it is manipulated by the people who control the gold.
The NZRB should not be abolished, but be the instrument to issue interest free currency. You cant have the govt do it.

Oh, and the gold standard sucks. There's a reason everyone has moved off it.
