The levels of taxation there are lower than they are now. assuming no N.I. So under your system why would i want to move from a job paying 18k to a job paying 20k. i'd earn less!! on your system 18k, I take home 16,200 on your system 20k, I take home 16,000 yeah... thats a great incentive to work harder and learn more to progress.... not to mention it is so fair... good grief ?! |
im not an expert, never claimed to be, i also said "something like" i know the example aint perfect, but tbh, youd complain about any system that made you pay taxes to help the less fortunate, so whats the point?
some people on here, are so self righteous and arrogant about this issue for whatever reason, that they seem to think that poor people are living it up on benefits and get the easy life, which is utter bullshit, you people who complain about these things, are clearly so far up your own rear ends, that the concept of being poor or needing support to get by, is unknown to you, especially thoose of you who "claim" to have come from poor backgrounds, how dare you suggest that everyone is like you, people are different, so you did well, good for you, that dosent mean you have the right to look down on everyone else.
try responding without sounding sanctimonuos, then maybe we can have a debate, till then, i have no intrest in talking to you people.
oh and by the way, inheritance tax, i believe you only currently pay when you inheret over 300k, how many people do you think get that much? and then, why is it unfair that some goes to help pay for the public services they no doubt use?
