And how is somebody earning £60 a day going to pay for a £23/day commute, and housing on top of that, smartypants? Oh, right, taxpayer money.
It’s almost like they’ve modelled this out before making it policy.
- ryanlol 7y agoWhat exactly is wrong about using taxpayer money to subsidize those commutes? I think we should certainly impose heavier taxes on the luxury developments and the rich living in them.
- xorcist 7y agoNo taxpayer money is being spent. That's the whole point of this system, to avoid spending on housing benefits by utilizing price caps.
- ryanlol 7y agoAre the developers not taxpayers? No spending is avoided here, it’s merely obscured a little. Taxing the developers for straight cash would at least give the government more control on how it is spend.
