Ray Gin Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 (edited) Ok let's just say you're on around £85k. That's £7083 a month. If Labour win you'd pay an extra £20 a month in tax since you're in the top 5% of earners in the country. £20/7083*100 = 0.28% tax increase Massive? Edited December 3, 2019 by Ray Gin actually only £20 not £30 as I originally thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctor jambo Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 1 hour ago, Victorian said: The whole spectrum is low. It's a valid point re take home pay and disposable income though. The economy would benefit from markedly higher take home pay and disposable income levels. But it is best effective at the mass population level of income. More money available to circulate around the real economy. That's what sustainably produces growth. The idea that the government spending my cash is better for the economy seems bizarre. Surely it’s better if I spend it? tax goes up, my spending drops. Cars, clothes, dining , all the stuff that fuels the economy and growth. Government takes it and the money goes into the ether- IT projects, pointless projects, governments squander countless billions entirely because it is not theirs. £58 billion to the women to compensate them for having to work to the same age as men- not means tested.

This is what Labour actually intend to do with the tiny amount extra tax they'd take off you: - Deliver a £26 billion NHS rescue package, recruiting thousands of nurses and GPs. - Reduce class sizes to 30 and provide free school meals for all primary school children. - Bring in an immediate Real Living Wage of £10 an hour. - Introduce free childcare for 2-4 year olds saving families between £2,500 and £5,000. - Introduce free personal care, investing £10.8 billion in social care provision. - Take £417 off the average household energy bill a year. - Keep the free bus pass for older people. - Stop the Tories taking free TV licences from over-75s. - Compensate the nearly four million women that lost out unfairly when the change in the state pension age was changed without fair notice.

HS2. garden bridge. gender neutral police hats. A modest tax increase isn't going to make much material difference to anyone who earns the kind of money we're talking about. Reducing the burden on those with much tighter incomes can make a tangible difference to the amount they can spend. For hundreds of thousands, maybe millions, it could make the difference between living in poverty (not even spending enough to support a dignified existence) to suddenly being able to afford to spend money in the supermarket, on a whole range of basic essentials, on basic household items, on debt reduction, on childrens' clothing, their own clothing, etc. Enfranchising people into the world of earn & spend. Natural, sustainable economic dynamics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will only vote for something that benefits themselves at the expense of others, otherwise why unroll the big bribes at the moment? "we will give you something, you don't have to pay for it- THEY will pay for it HOORAH!" Or is self centered voting only applicable above a certain level?
