Submission statement: Germany is suggesting that childfree adults will have ot pay more for elder care to off-set a freeloader problem. This is a sign of things to come, as Europe’s social welfare systems will start to be more and more constrained as Europe’s population becomes older due to a dropping birth rate.

Isn’t this just the negative mirror version of child tax credits?
>The poll found that 91% of adults and 87% of children believed that conditions and standards in schools across Germany’s federalized education system should be standardized.
Who polls children?
>The bill would have contributions from childfree adults increase by 0.7% over a period of years, meaning they would pay 2.5% of their income each month. Their employer will be expected to pay 1.8%. For adults with children the rates will remain the same: 1.8% for people with one child, 1.55% for people with two children, and 1.3% for people with three or more children.
>Under the proposal, all adults over the age of 23 who are working full-time would be affected.
I dont like this practice of hiding real payroll rate with employer contributions
