You're right in a sense that it's not desperately far-reaching, in as much as it is a supply-side analysis of labour, and not really much else (and as you point out, it misses out little things like childcare and transport). But my view is that if you accept that, and recognise the report for what it is - one piece of the jigsaw - then it really is quite a big step forward in policy thinking. As I've said in my blog, I think the Big Idea is one of humanising benefit claimants - in this case, by considering them as rational economic agents.<br /><br />Also, it's a fair point that it's a shame they need to argue for it on the basis of future cost savings. But at the same time, it's good to see the high social costs of poverty being talked about(albeit in financial terms).Moussahttp://www.oxfamblogs.org/ukpovertypost/author/moussa-haddad/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33451096.post-63834217385315193382009-09-18T12:44:31.746+00:002009-09-18T12:44:31.746+00:00With regard to how much this vs increased tax cred...With regard to how much this vs increased tax credits would reduce poverty by (and I speak with little knowledge and without having read the report), surely part of their argument must (quite rightly) be that poverty alone is not a sufficient measure, and that getting parents into work and into stable couples is highly beneficial to children regardless of their level of income, and may indeed be all that's required to allow them to transcend material poverty in their long-term prospects. <br /><br />Certainly any financial incentives to single parenthood are extremely likely to be damaging to child development, since there is absolutely no prospect of the state ever being able to financially compensate for the earnings lost from two parents (and since 50% of variance in outcomes between children single and dual parent households is accounted for by income diffs). <br /><br />So I'd agree with you that their approach to tackling poverty per se may be misplaced, but surely they are right for a welfare/developmental perspective (thinking solely of children here, which I realise is dodgy terrain) to emphasise non-material social goods such as strong family units?John Bhttp://jblabour.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
