The Russian solution: Tax couple without children

Putin made a decision on the childlessness tax and put forward an important condition.

According to our sources in the Kremlin and the government, the president approved the introduction of a childlessness tax in Russia. And its rate - as we wrote, the new tax will be set at 9% of the income of childless citizens.

At the same time, Vladimir Putin put forward a condition for introducing a new tax: he gave the task of working out a mechanism in which at least 60-70% of the proceeds from it would go to help veterans of the Northern Military District. In particular, he instructed to consider the possibility of payments to veterans who will start families. The remaining funds received from the new tax are planned to be spent on helping large families and anti-abortion campaigns.

Now two questions remain to be resolved: at what age will childless citizens pay the tax and when will it be introduced. These issues are being studied.

It is expected that, as we predicted , the childlessness tax will be introduced in the summer.

Why not better support for having children?

[spirited irish]

Some years after the collapse of the Soviet Union an attempt was made to teach maleness and femaleness in opposition to the gender-bending conditioned into youth during the Soviet years (called sex-pol). Tracking along with that program was an attempt at putting a dent in the rampant abortion from Soviet days by offering married women the equivalent of $9000 if they would stay home and have at least one more child.

Obviously, from what you have written, Russia is still trying to climb out of the grave it was thrown into by the Soviets and their ideological programs (ie., antifamily; anti-procreation; anti-male and female).

“Why not better support for having children?”

Because Putin prefers punishments to rewards?
