    Young people are more likely to go into debt at the start of their lives. Whether it be for things like rent, buying a car, buying a house, education.

    If taxes are lower they can either have more savings or pay of debt faster.

    Come on it’s not that hard to realise more take home means you have more money. Christ this website is so financially illiterate.

      Glad to know people taking on 30 year long loans pay slightly lower taxes for a few years, that’s certainly helping a lot. Few because no one’s giving a 20 years old a loan for a house/flat lol so you’re probably closer to 30 when you actually can and do want to settle.

      You might be financially literate, but you’re not human literate if you think this tax reform is anything but catering to the young and non-politicised.

        The tax break allows you to save. Means you will accumulate a deposit earlier in life, all else being equal.

        What’s wrong with catering to the young? They need help.

          Because it’s populist crap, obviously. We don’t need MBAs and business school grads to pay lower taxes, quite the opposite. There’s one party proposing to smoothen tax brackets across the board, which would also have a huge impact on the younger, and it’s not Bardella’s.

          This tax cut is also a drop in the ocean compared to what they want to do to the retirement reform, but young people think they will never be old, and the old one sacrifices the youth at every turn so not many actually care this stuff despite the impact.

          Lastly, I’m not sure there’s even a plan for financing such tax cut. That’s why people call it far right populist bullshit. The man did his entire campaign on tiktok and is only where he is because he married into the Le Pen family.
