800 plus for seniors. "Retired persons have a legitimate right to be paid 800 PLN"
The author of the petition states: "When the current parents of young children get [...] for each kid for 18 years x 12 months x 800 zł = 172.800 zł, it seems that pensioners who raised their children and received no money from you have a legitimate right to be paid an allowance for the pension of 800 zł for each kid they have been raised" - we read in the petition for the grant of 800 plus for 50-year-olds and seniors. The author besides pointed to low pensions and increased taxation. "It must not be that the generation of current pensioners is inactive injured and no fructured from their hard work can receive, as they only pay for taxes and contributions to the state budget without getting anything in return". any point out that specified an allowance should besides be granted to 50-year-olds who are not yet retired, but have missed their 500+ and then 800+ subsidies.
800 plus for seniors. "We utilized to gotta pay for everything"
What do the curious parties think about this? It would seem that anyone would be tempted to get an extra injection of cash. However, the sentences on the forums are divided. The same is actual of our callers. - I think it would be fair - the first individual started. - erstwhile our children were small, there was no specified support from you. It was like "family" but so low that it wasn't adequate for anything, then even it got blurry somehow. And now parents have a paradise on earth. 800+, plus 300 PLN for the expedition, grandma. erstwhile we had to pay for everything, buy books, food, clothes. We had to work hard to save money so our children could live decently. Now it's time to settle these injustices. 800 plus for seniors is simply a good way. I hope the president shows empathy for older people. Finally, we raised generations of taxpayers. any form of thanks is due - our caller's receipt.
If you decide to have children, you should be ready to bear the cost. In my opinion, 800+ should be completely abandoned. It will be fair to the young parents and those who have already raised their own. No 1 helped them, and they made it. And present everyone just wants to take and take. Even erstwhile they sleep on money, they want more. And those who don't have money, they fill out benefits applications alternatively of looking for work. Let them rise their wages and their pensions. And aid the neediest. By the way, public debt will be regulated
