Scrap Child Benefit?

All this fuss over Child Benefit? Why should folk on over £50k get ANY benefits? Come to that surely only the poorest should get any benefits.  We  seem to have unlimited benefits in this country, why? Surely we shouldn't just keep paying out for unlimited children?
child Benefit
My answer? Limit child Benefit to the first 3 children. We do need children for society to develop. After all as we get older and retire who do you think works and generates the wealth to keep us in our old age?

Conversely why should people get used to living on handouts? If the Government is paying you to live then just like those who work to live - ALL INCOME SHOULD BE TAXED!

So if you're on a low income you pay less or no tax. The more you get the more you pay in TAX. Seems fair?
What makes me cross is where has the commitment to help married couples? If only one works then he/she should share their Tax allowances since its a JOINT income. One person not working allows someone else to have a job opportunity instead of everyone working putting kids in care.Better to have mum or dad looking after them?

Gay Marriage again

Why do we have keep going on and on about Gay Marriage? There are much more  important issues for the Government to consider. For example when is someone (Government) going to challenge Syria about its Human Rights vioaltions? The UN seem impotent, merely forever draing lines in the sand.

Anyway, I suport Gay Marriage mainly because if Gay people can marry and why not? it strenghthens MARRIAGE surely?

The Government should consider spending half the time it does on Gay Marriage on traditional Marriage! If they dod this and brought in the promised Tax advantages to marriage (Gay as well) we would perhaps end up with a better society.

2 people who commit to each other and make a legal contract must be supported. In the end why should non-married people have rights that Married people get? Surely that's the point of Marriage. To get the rights you have to have a contract. That is how law works in all areas.

So if they allow Gay marriage it must follow that they support traditional Marriage. So lets go for it.

Come on David, stop discriminating against non-Gay people.
