    wtf is child tax credit all about?
    folk with kids should have to pay extra money either in tax or council taxes to fund schools etc I reckon rather than it being a flat rate for everyone.
    childless professionals would be paying less council tax so its extra money to save towards their first mortgage

    • with on that.Wolfboy
    • with you on that.Wolfboy
    • and if you have kids do you then have to pay increased tax to refund all those "credits" you've had?jamble
    • no the credit exists. its money you get back if you HAVE kids in the first place. like a rebate of taxes23kon
    • It's the governments hope you'll have more kids who will grow up to be taxpaying citizens.eegrek
    • dude, we live in a society. Can't be "I'm alright Jack, fuck you." We need to help people who need it.Melanie
    • lol 23kon - trust me you don't get any tax credits if you earn anything barely above a liveable income. Tax credits are there to help low income families whofadein11
