Careers Childcare Allowance & Taxes: Family vs. Work?

Again and again a political one determines Streit the German party landscape, which is currently also affecting the professional life of Women could affect. It's about the question "Should the childcare allowance come or not?" Especially from a tax policy point of view, the care allowance is to be viewed very critically.

What is planned?

Parents who take care of their toddlers at home (until their third birthday) should receive a care allowance of 100 € (from 2013) or 150 € (later, exact time not yet fixed).

The Federal Chancellor, Mrs Merkel, has spoken a word of power. The childcare allowance will come!

But why is the debate going on?

Independent experts found that the parents of 60 percent of all children under the age of three did not want to use state-subsidized childcare. Her decision deserves ours as well Respect and our support, and that's why there should be childcare allowance for them. (Westfalenblatt, April 24.04.2012th, XNUMX). "

Care allowance from a tax perspective

Taxation would be taxed as a so-called progression income. This means that it is virtually tax-free, but is used to calculate the (then higher) tax rate for the taxation of the other income. If there are no other tax-relevant income, there is no tax exemption.

In this case, it would be a matter of pure subsidies, with no quantifiable economic return flow into the economic cycle. The Financing of the childcare allowance, however, is just as unclear as the financing of additional pension entitlements for the parents.

Does it make sense to raise children at home?

Instead of respecting the decision and reflexively supporting why 60% of the parents apparently reject a state support, one should take up the problem and ask:

• Why is government-subsidized support rejected?
• Does the rejection have financial reasons?
• Is the supervision rejected because of the concept?
• How are the sixty percent "rejectors" composed?
• Is it a homogenous or heterogeneous parent circle?

Why is it even possible to refuse this kind of care, or should it not be thought about introducing compulsory care for these children, much like compulsory education?

It doesn't have to be eight hoursmandatory be. A minimum time block of, for example, three hours is certainly sufficient, in which the children social Competencies and learn motor skills within the peer group.

Free kindergartens instead of childcare?

Instead of introducing a care allowance and thus supporting a negative mood, this should Money be used, for example, to offer free care for the entire kindergarten period.

This can only be a start-up financing. In addition, appropriate educational establishments must be created, buildings must be expanded or newly built, the supply of food, with materials must be secured.

Invest in the future

In this case it is an investment. Investments that flow immediately into the economic cycle and a corresponding return flow takes place via lower unemployment figures and thus a relief for social security, increased tax revenue from wage tax (jobs), Value added tax and other income taxes (expansion, renovation, equipment).

Instead of introducing the care allowance and thus supporting a negative attitude, politicians should make it their task to question the reasons for the rejection and to turn a negative, destructive attitude into one positive create a mood. It is time to develop visions. Holes have been plugged long enough.
