So,
at the top end, the fatcats are facing a strict cap on their outrageous
salaries, regardless of how many children they have. The coalition
government are determined to deal firmly with the problem of excessive
remuneration, even if it means that the bloated capitalists have to move
house to a cheaper mansion out in the suburbs. And if their spoiled
kids have to move to a cheaper school, then so be it. It’s a something
for something society.
Meanwhile,
at the bottom end, recipients of housing benefit and child benefit will
simply be encouraged to desist from claiming the absolute maximum
possible. The government will insist that the Department of Work and
Pensions publishes benefit rates, so that there is full transparency.
The government justifies such a relatively ineffective response by
pointing out that the future economy of the country depends upon the
legions of the unemployed and the low paid and it does not want to upset
them.
Or have I got this the wrong way round?
