So this is a measure that, in your view, favours the rich.
Now I'd like to move on to another measure, income splitting.
I've done a bit of math. A couple in which one person earns $100,000 a year and the other earns $20,000 would see their tax bill drop by $1,800. But a family with a total income of $50,000 a year wouldn't benefit at all. In fact, according to a study, 86% of people wouldn't benefit.
I see that the income splitting measure will cost just about as much as a measure that would have brought seniors out of poverty.
Do you have any figures related to seniors and how much it would take to raise their income above the poverty line?
