Speaking of contradictory posts, feel free to answer this contradiction on tax credits any time you chose. Hopefully, you'll just disappear for a month till the argument moves on like last time.
Your not new to the internet, so no excuses for you trying to equate absolutely standard internet forum scorn for ultra ****ty replies with spitting dummies or whatever lame **** you are reduced too currently.
Also nice try with trying to equate the contradiction of a blatant lie with a non contradiction ignored by someone who OMFG missed a reply on 2+2.
You realise that if someone has to survive on £150 a month has that doubled to £300 its going to FEEL massive, but in objective terms still not vastly increase there QOL and social standing.
I dont want to AIDS necro that discussion but no doubt you will to try, but you are simply confusing subjective perception of increase in utility with all sorts of other factors.
Someone will really feel the utility of 800 to 900 as its a 12.5% increase in income and each pound has more utility when you are poor, however that increase will still not vastly improve QOL and social standing. Soon the person earning 900 will greatly resent that you can not work and still get 800. It will greatly undermine the social contract.
As I said working full time should vastly improve QOL over full core dole patrol, work or participation and contribution to the social system as compared to just leeching from it should show real concrete reward. That is exactly the expressed purpose of the TC system.
This in no way at all contradicts the fact that an extra 12.5% income a month has real utility to someone on 800 a month that will feel massive. That utility will just be to lessen slightly the toughness of budget pressure. Its the utility of going from really **** to a bit less ****. However in no sense does it represent a
So yea, not even remotely close to a contradiction .
