Money is limited and the government decides how to distribute it. The difference between spending it on B and taking it away from A is, to me, absolutely unsubstantial.


By that logic, by giving the money to you, the government is taking it away from starving children. It simply doesn't work this way.


That’s quite a stretch. And it shows how limited your comprehension of the topic is.

Clearly, the money that goes to starving children comes from a different Department, and they are on different budgets. You just cannot move money like that.

And I still think that rather than giving a silly paternal leave, a longer maternal leave would be much more desirable.
