HeadingNorth Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 It isn't supposed to. It's supposed to cut the amount of government spending, by removing a benefit from rich people who can manage without it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because that wouldn't be fair on the section of society that has embraced breeding as it's favourite pastime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More to the point, it would not be fair on the children, who have done no wrong even if you condemn the parents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop the payments,stop the breeding. I'm not anti family, in fact I think the payment should be stopped for the highest earners but restricted to one child for everyone else.

I don't mean restrict child birth,only the money paid out. Have ten kids if you like, providing you can afford to support them:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
