Child benefit cuts

Oh Yes They Will. This is sounding like a pantomime now!

Let's say everyone stops having children. Who's going to pay your pension then? Who's going to work to provide the services you need/want?

We already have an aging population for which we are struggling to get enough working people to fund.

Perhaps you suggest euthanasia for elderly?

That's a different question altogether. That has no bearing on whether the children's taxes benefit previous generations or not. [They don't!]

But introducing more children wouldn't help here - they "drain" the system by just as much as they "add" to it, over their lifetime.
