“What this will mean is that between 2007 and 2017, benefits would have been going up at about the same speed as earnings and, frankly, is it really fair to say to people: your benefits are going to go up faster than the earnings of people whose taxes pay for your benefits? I don’t think it is fair and that’s why I think what George did yesterday was a difficult choice but the right one.”
This is what David Cameron thinks isn’t fair. But being a part of a country means staying together and helping the weak have a chance at a normal life standard. Solidarity isn’t to be seen a lot in David Cameron’s speech. Cutting the chance of a decent life, can easily affect the school attendance, health and happiness of the individual, and by only worse can happen. But not only will the future see worse, with limited options for the children of the weak, what about the middle class, who someday may want to take a break and benefit from the taxes they pay?
The only way to help the hard-working class, if cutting the benefits, is to raise the payment, so they could be independent from the state. As written on this blog post by ‘’Flip Chart Fairy Tales’’, the hard-working families have no way at succession in rising, when the salary isn’t paying, or the job isn’t fitting with children and the high housing costs. In the picture below, only 5 out of 12 regions can make it through without claiming any help from the state. As long as some other financial help, as salary raise, can be made, cutting benefits from the weak won’t make any good for the society.
