I agree.Yes it was there when he needed it to help dig him out of the hole, ie on a temporary basis.
The problem with tax credits is that people take them as a given, hence all the hoo haa now some of them are being taken away. It's a similar scenario with interest rates: people are coming round to the idea that they're always going to be 0.5%. A seismic shock is on its way on that front.
I, like Jason was in receipt of tax credits briefly although it wasn't a great deal of money. The problem with tax credits is that is has become a corporate subsidy and has inadvertently created a part time working mentality among some people.
