"It's fairer" is just tautology.
Student loans are not based on household income and many other benefits aren't either.
As for family life that is covered by basing tax cuts / benefits on children not merely the nebulous concept of a household.
- graemep 9mo agoThe concept of a household is not nebulous. It is used by economists for a good reason. People in the same household pool income and expenses. The law assumes married couples do so. Parents are jointly responsible for their children. Really? There are benefits and tax cuts that allow parents to spend more time with their children? Not that I know of.
