[QUOTE=JoshBB;7668377]If we had a 50p top tax rate, or even just a 46/47 top tax rate.. and we made sure every person weren't avoiding paying it.. then we wouldn't need to even do this. these people are vulnerable and need these benefits to live.
be more harsh on false claimants by all means, but don't punish those who need them.[/QUOTE]
Therein lies one of the answers to the UKs problems.
Odd how if the tax reduced it is claimed we get more but if it is higher, the govt and inland revenue are unable to know who and what they should be paying.
Tighten up on that as you say, and stop kicking people already surviving on a pittance in relation to the funds lost in tax avoidance of any sort.
Sadly, the bit I have highlighted in bold on your post, seems to be one of the only things this govt; is willing to enthusiastically set out to do to those who are vulnerable, with not an ounce of compassion and caring as to the consequences of such heartless and unjust policies.
