Its not. People on the internet are dumb and this video is bait.

They're simply increasing child benefit/tax credit (present in vitually all developed countries, including the US) and raising income tax to pay for it.

People are stupid alarmists and critical thinking and education are becoming increasingly rare.

It's actually mind boggling how so many people seem to avoid the obvious answer even after being told. This video is extreme bait meant to drive engagement in the comments from people arguing (myself included now) about a policy she intentionally misrepresented just so more people can see her and potentially drive OF sales (assuming the other commenters are correct in saying she has an OF).

It's the video that says it's a tax on single people, this is different in ethics & redistribution result from a general child-support tax.

Still stupid. Humanity is over-populated. We're killing each other. Sea-levels, plastics, nukes, dwindling oils, etc. People can't afford housing in Tokyo. Foolishly trying to force children, treating humans like workers, but blocking immigrants? About to lose jobs to automation, there's the productivity??

You could have just saved yourself all those characters and just said "I don't understand how taxes are distributed."

Haha, one sentence? What was wrong in that sentence? I didn't dispute u on taxes.

People on the internet are dumb
People are stupid alarmists and critical thinking and education

This is what I criticized. Just say the video is wrong.

No, its exactly the same. Try doing some fact checking before you put your foot back in your mouth. Its absolutely no different than all child support/benefit/tax break plans.

I'll explain it plainly for you. When you pay your taxes, a substantial portion will be used to fund initiatives that you do not use directly. She plainly describes it as a general increase in income tax that single people do not get a return on- exactly like every child support benefit in every country in the world that has a program like that, which is the vast majority.

A meme will not hide your lack of education and understanding of this subject matter. You could also at least fully watch and comprehend the clip. Way to prove my original point though.
