employers will offset what they have to pay into KiwiSaver by taking it out of wages
Because they are too incompetent to increase productivity by a tiny amount each year any other way? Good to see how little the Nats' pet muckspreader thinks of their consitituents. And how thoroughly unambitious and timid this bunch of yesterday's men really are.
