Originally posted by escapeUK View PostIf we continue that to its logical conclusion, then people with children should pay more in tax to pay for their education, NHS etc You may argue that everyone benefits from children being educated, but equally everyone benefits from roads and yet only people who own vehicles pay road tax.I get your point; my view is if you use it, pay for it. If you want it, fork out the cash or have a reality check. My hard earned money is just that, mine. I'm all for helping those genuinely in need, not those who make themselves in need. If tomorrow I end up in a wheelchair because I didn't look right crossing the road I'd blame no one but my sorry self. More responsibly and accountability needed in this day and age.Originally posted by escapeUK View PostI think the point of the example completely eluded you.
