The Labour Party today announced yet another election bribe - this time giving tax relief to families. (See: http://www.newstalkzb.co.nz/newsdetail1.asp?storyID=78469)
Will this make me vote Labour - no! We just have one child and with the income both my wife and I earn (which is not much - less than $35,000) we would get an extra $16 per week - WOW!!
This policy only benefits those with lots of kids (for example if we had 4 children we would get an extra $202 per week). This is very dangerous as people will purposly have more children just to get more money! We need tax cuts across the board - not an increase in welfare!
