The government are not handing money. Borrowing money to fund tax cuts does not involve giving money to individuals. The government are using the borrowed money to make up the shortfall to pay for services. Therefore, everyone benefits from the borrowed money. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a Trope, a fact. So those on 100k are "wealthy"? Looks like we are getting somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But of course you need simple answers to address the complex problems faced by people you openly denigrate. Twelve years of Tory ‘tough love’ hasn’t solved anything, two more years of doubling down on failed policies will deliver nothing but more of the same failure. Twelve yeas of Tory love, you are right, get the layabout scroungers back to work, pay tax to help the NHS out, send aid to your food kitchen, you're on the right track now......???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that’s the basis of you calling me a liar. I’ve never felt the need to call another member a liar, but then I deal with logical fact based arguments. The way to solve this then is to reduce the tax free allowance to (let's say) £5000. Then the people who earn less than £12570 will be able to benefit from the tax cuts! Everyones a winner!

Putting aside your facetious humour, raising the tax free allowance would have given very direct help to those on low incomes and would have avoided handing large tax breaks to the wealthy. All earners would receive the same assistance. But of course that would not have handed large sums to the already wealthy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 56 Billion per year I could have rounded up to 1.08 Billion per week but I didn't want to exaggerate the increase in NHS funding under the Tories since the Brexit vote so I went with 1.07. And to think, they only promised 350 million. Always better to under promise and over deliver. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

placeholder Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 But the extremely wealthy were scheduled to get a bigger percentage cut in their taxes until Truss relented. And the government plans to cut back the dividend tax which was recently raised to pay for health and social services. And cuts in dividend taxes will disproportionately favor the wealthy since a far higher percentage of their earnings comes from stock holdings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other poster stated that all we've seen is money to the wealthy. That was inaccurate since middle and low earners also got a tax break.
