Tax for being single? Christian democrats removed its own suggestion
Change language:
Based on a Facebook post, hvg.hu reported that the Christian Democratic People’s Party (KDNP) would like to discuss the idea of a tax paid for being single. The envisaged tax would apply to anyone above 30. They also had the idea of making it compulsory for women, who work in the public sector in a managing position, to have at least three children.
The Budapest section of the Young Christian Democratic Union (IKSZ) initiated a debate to stop the population decline in Hungary, because they believe it’s outrageous that 52% of the people between the ages of 20 and 39 are childless, and 88% of the women in the category are unmarried. The debate would have been based on Dr. József Benda’s book who is a regular at KDNP meetings. Later the national section of IKSZ announced that they by no means support the idea the “single tax” (if anything, they support tax reduction), and the idea was formed by the Union’s District I section. The debate’s Facebook event was also canceled.
The main point of the debate would have been to find ideas to stop the population decline and increase the number of marriages. Also, one of their suggestions was that the government should support people on their journey to find a partner and contribute to the costs of dating. Likewise, the government should support those married couples who are having trouble with their relationship in order to prevent divorces.
Instead of sticking their noses, down people’s throats. These dummies should be trying to find ways to make family life more attractive and easier like the Fidesz party is. All the KDMP, MSZP and all those other letters that are hard to pronounce do is make life difficult for the acting government and thereby the people. Get lost already!
